Well, I'll be the first to admit that I'd only heard of Bobby McFerrin because of "Don't Worry......." but, thanks to you I've just invested a bit of time checking out clips of him on Youtube. Oh man! what a legend! I had no idea. I'm sold. It certainly looks like it'll be a great show. Have fun.
What CD's would you recommend for the newcomer?

Blue Note Years - it's a best of. I'm a huge fan of the album he did with Yo-Yo Ma too, but I don't know the title of it. He did some excellent work with Herbie Hancock (he of the magic fingers) on Round Midnight. Really anything. He'll be playing Europe some this year - you can get his dates on BobbyMcFerrin - there's also this neat little things where you can look at two songs (Don't Worry Be Happy is one) & you can add & delete the different tracks - ..Happy is 8 different vocal tracks laid over one another - & hear each one as it is or with any of the others. I'm very much looking forward to it! I hope you like what you hear of him - if you ever get the chance to see him - it's all improv so it would be very cool.
