My street creds are toast - jazzboCR - 17-09-2014

This magnificent '85 all-star disc is from one of Mile Davis' mid-period stalwarts, Kenny Garrett...and I just heard it yesterday. Hang my head in shame.: http://www.allmusic.com/album/african-exchange-student-mw0000690747
Only 3 tunes from this are YT-posted:

From GrooveShark.com, the title tune: http://grooveshark.com/#!/search/song?q=Kenny+Garrett+African+Exchange+Student << I'd be particularly interested in Jerome's thoughts on this, not least because he may have been one...FWIW, the slinky-a$$ groove on this one underlying the human/animals' screams and struggles stirs something deep in me...May be guilty of a bit of overthinking this...
To make up for that sad lack, here's a 1-hour concert from NYC, from a Japanese source (they're mad for the lad): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv3tSF54ElU
