Was just thinking the same. The best jazz-funk record ever that isn't On The Corner or by Gil Scott-Heron

I haven't heard this in years.

Sextant by Herbie Hancock is a masterpiece, though.

Just one of those fusion game changers. Awesome and thorough listen. Harvey Mason lays down THE perfect feel on drums.

I'm a huge fan of traditional jazz and Herbie was a master of that genre. It's easy to be disappointed when such an accomplished artist takes off and delves into less "serious" music. But this is a fantastic album. Herbie is a very talented musician capable of excelling across a broad array of styles.
