It's become a favorite of mine, too. Tongue

Two of the four are faves of mine and really are standouts in my music journey.

Cortex's Troupeau Bleu is an excellent album, and I really like your choice from it. I only discovered the album within the last few years, and here is a track that I have highlighted from it at PA before which is so very me.



That said, I could go with both, but I will go with Bennie Maupin's "Quasar", which is one of my favourite tracks (and one I have liked to mention quite a bit in the past). I adore it. I love a crescendo, and that has one of my very favourite crescendos in music. I do love the Crossings version too.

The other two I was not as familiar with (I do recall that California Woman) and I enjoyed listening to those.

Didn't know any of these tracks but it was a good listen. I'm generally not that much interested in this kind of smooth jazz/fusion in the sense that I'm quickly loosing my attention and interest when listening to an album, e.g., but a track here and there is always enjoyable as are these four. The stand-out for me is Bennie Maupin's Quasar.

La Sezatoare is the only one I wasn't originally familar with. They're all gorgeous really. I'm a sucker for groovin' and playful jazzfusion with a relaxed - or loose sort of feel. Much more into that than groups playing all the notes all the time really fast. As I'm even more fond of the original Quasar on (Herbie/Mwandishi's) Crossings, I'm gonna give my vote to Cortex and their wonderful La Rue.
