r4dt is right. If you like the early records by Weather Report, this is the logical step forward. Some very inspirated guys use modern production tools to perform incredible musical ideas and sounds. It's from 1978, a real pearl of jazzrock.

Musical taste is one thing...
-but I dare to say that this must be one of the most interesting recordings made the last 30 years! (Musical-wise)
At least 2 musical century-geniuses collaborate on this one, and it became so good that most people don't get it... yet.
I bet this will become famous in ... let's say 20 years, or so. :)

Every time I listen to it... I become sooo humble...
When you make music yourself, there is not much one can say about it...
It's just friggin' incredible!
