Diana in the Autumn Wind
On Diana in the Autumn Wind, Gap Mangione turns late‑60s trio jazz into a Technicolor funk miniature: short, intricate charts, molten Rhodes, and a young Tony Levin/Steve Gadd rhythm engine that future hip‑hop would mine like sacred scripture.
Tchic Tchic (French Bossa Nova 1963 1974)
