FZ: Hello, folks! This thing wiggles too much. Hey, that's more like
It, mhm, yes, okay. Bruce Fowler on trombone, Napoleon Murphy Brock
On tenor sax, and vocals, Ruth Underwood on percussion. Okay. The
Gong always gets 'em. Ralph Humphrey on drums, Chester Thompson on
Drums, Tom Fowler on bass, George Duke on keyboards. Alright, now
Uh, let me get myself tuned up and then we'll do a suave program
For you. Alright. Well, Ian's busy. He's uh, he's with his parents
In um, uh, Florida, but he'll be back in town soon, ladies and
Gentlemen. Now we're gonna open up with some . . . Hey, Brian Krokus
Ladies and gentlemen! Right back there. He is our mixer, and of

You don't know what they're supposed to be for. It doesn't look like
It would have been a road, because it doesn't go anywhere, and
There's a bunch of 'em. And some people think, well maybe it
Was a landing field. But the carvings are very, very old and
They're very, very big, you know, indicating that the people
Who made them were highly, uh, well, they were, heh heh, they
Really had their together for the things they'd carved in the
Rock. And it's possible that if they were landing fields, that
The things that landed on them were NOT OF THIS EARTH! And so we
Have a song which features the lovely voice of Mr. George Duke
And the name of the song is "Inca Roads." Take it away, George
