    My favorite is the 11 minute Tito Puente cover followed by Miles' version.
    Simply beautiful. We should compile as many versions of the track as we can
    get our hands on. I also have Bobby McFerrin and Chick Corea's version.
    I'm willing to contribute...anybody else?

    time-keepers, and then time-savers, and now time-servers.  In the process, 
    we have learned irreverence toward the sun and the seasons, for in a world 
    made up of seconds and minutes, the authority of nature is superseded."
