I am referring to the movie, The Wiz. When the subway peddler comes out of the darkness of the underground parking deck, you can hear that "creepy 6-note recorder motif" which is playing all along while the peddler is walking towards Dorothy (Diana Ross) and of course, the orange-springy accordion-men are getting bigger and bigger. Now about three years ago, I was watching the Weather Channel (yes, I am addicted to the jazz and other music that plays on that channel) and there is a moderate-paced melodic/smooth jazz song that played for about three minutes (like the rest of the songs) and in this song, there was the EXACT "creepy 6 note recorder motif" that played somewhere in the middle of this smooth jazz beat. My question is, does anybody know the song I'm talking about?

Perhaps it was listed on the movie VHS, DVD, laser disc, beta, cover. Or try looking up the movie in Yahoo movies.

it is very similar to the intro to Herbie Hancock's "Watermelon Man":
