Mwandishi for me. Sextant is up there with the very best fusion releases ever alongside Weather Report's I Sing The Body Electric and Bennie Maupin's Jewel In The Lotus. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

Weather Report (my favorite of theirs) Return to Forever Herbie Hancock (not one of the best of his fusion era, from what I recall)

Yeah that cover art is gorgeous. I had a poster of it glued to the ceiling for ten years. I would watch it every night before falling asleep and then waking up to it early in the morning, eluminated in sunlight no less. There's a sense of total freedom about the dancers. Some kind of metaphysical handshake with the animals, desert and stars above. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

All three! But that particular RTF album lags far behind their first two; same is true for WR - their first two (and the Live in Tokyo double album, from which half of the second album is taken) are my favorites; with Herbie, however, Sextant lies smack dab in the middle of his proggiest and his funkiest periods - the Mwadishu (sp?) stuff bleeds right into his funk-fusion period and Sextant is the transition album between the two periods - one foot in the prog and one in the funk - great album!
