As many know, the NPR daily news show Morning Edition plays snippets of
unattributed instrumental music edited between the news stories. A few days
ago I am certain that I heard the introductory chords to "Hejira" performed
on solo acoustic-electric guitar and solo fretless bass. It was not Joni and
Jaco, and it was not played all that well (IMO). Too bad, cuz it's great
music all right, one of my personal faves. I wonder about the
royalties/copyright issues with this kind of thing. I tried to look around
npr.org this morning but didn't find anything referring to these segments of
music. In fact, the morning edition page failed to load :(
