Listeners who are now in the right mood, can also find some excellent live recordings of “Volcano for Hire” on YouTube, including a 1981 Tokyo recording, featuring Jaco Pastorius, and a 1982 recording from the Playboy Jazz Festival in Hollywood. I personally find the latter the most interesting because of the big amount of energy released by the drummer and percussionist: this volcano is about to erupt! If all this is not enough, you can also listen at watch on YouTube a version for two pianos of this composition performed by 2 keyboard virtuosos: Friedrich Gulda and Joe Zawinul. There are 2 different live recordings. One of the live recordings has been released on CD with the title “Music For Two Pianos”.
Now back to the painting. Wayne Shorter and Jaco Pastorius walk by a "Volcanoes for Hire" shop and they see that the shop owner Joe Zawinul shows a very fine active volcano in a glass box. By the way: people who want to own their own volcano can check out YouTube on how to make your own volcano out of cardboard. Smoke included!

Almost all my paintings are inspired by books or music, they are a tribute to a certain author, composer or artist and his/her work. Of course I would be happy if a painting encourages someone to read the book or listen to the music.
All works are ready to hang. The ecoline paintings are framed with a frame of your choice: light oak or black aluminum. The paintings have a passe-partout and a plate of glass on the front. Oil paintings have a wire on the back so they can be hung.
