Memphis Underground. Mellow Yellow. Bitch. . . . The names of the songs, themselves symbolic, are swallowed up, devoured by the living images that transform the room. Two guitars, wielded by smiling demigods, alternate and fuse in har- monic wave-lengths, pitching forward, striding abreast like proud Clydsdale stallions. Cries and whispers of awe float from the audience; a child entranced by its mentor, enlightened by an ex- perience of Herbie Mann. No sooner had we been left breath- less, when we are overwhelmed by a lusty rendition of Hold On I ' m Com- ing. The celebration renews, mo- mentarily rejuvenating us. Bliss and Solitude. The Players: Herbie Mann Flute David Newman Sax Pat Rebillot Organist Steve Gadd Drummer 26

by Wally Hutton Marc Levy HERBIE MANN We must be still moving Into another intensity For a further union, a deeper communion. T. S. Eliot I am sitting alone in the nearly empty main lounge. Two of the mu- sicians carry on with the minor tunings and warm-ups. The drummer, Steve Gadd, consorts with the metal and membrane cosmos of which he is the center. Pat Rebillot, the organist and pianist, speaks to him in a high nasal voice. Haunting, fleeting melodies drift by . . . Test . . . Test . . . the anonymous mystical voice answers. A menagerie of brass instruments sits comfortably at stage left — gongs, bells, chimes. I think they are convers- ing secretly. There is a man on stage snapping his fingers and without warning, music explodes upon the audience. The mu- sicians seem more than human. The celebration opens before as we awak- en to Sun Rise Highs. Camera flashes illumine the moment. During the tune, In Memory of Liz Reid , ran dom smiles pass between the Family of Mann. It is a subtly intimate marriage between David Newman ' s sax and Herbie Mann ' s flute. Amidst the verbal silence, the group moves, and yet it is not that they are only moving and playing the music, but they have become the music. They are a heptagonal prism expressing a form within a spectrum, complementing space with sound. 25
