I love me some Weather Report, but this album is my personal favorite. It has a strange and eerie vibe but stays diverse and fresh throughout. It has samples for O.C.'s Can't Go Wrong and Kool G Rap's 4,5,6 as well.

Weather Report- Mysterious Traveller- 1974
1. Nubian Sundance (Zawinul)ג 10:40
2. American Tango (Vitous, Zawinul)ג 3:40
3. Cucumber Slumber (Johnson, Zawinul)ג 8:22
4. Mysterious Traveller (Shorter)ג 7:21
5. Blackthorn Rose (Shorter)ג 5:03
6. Scarlet Woman (Johnson, Shorter, Zawinul)ג 5:46
7. Jungle Book (Zawinul)ג 7:25

1. Pinch
2. Sing Swan Song
3. One More Night
4. Vitamin C
5. Soup
6. Iגm So Green

This album's really from '69, but I got it in a double album combo with the 1970 Hancock album Mwandishi. It was Herbie's first attempt at a funky album and smashing success. It was centered around soundtrack music Hancock made for Bill Cosby and is a precursor to the sound Hancock would later develop on Headhunters.

1. "Wiggle-Waggle" - (5:51)
2. "Fat Mama" - (3:49)
3. "Tell Me a Bedtime Story" - (5:01)
4. "Oh! Oh! Here He Comes" - (4:08)
5. "Jessica" - (4:13)
6. "Fat Albert Rotunda" - (6:29)
7. "Lil' Brother" - (4:26)

Just came across this:
http://rappamelo.com/2010/12/herbie-hancock-albums/
Looks like Hancock's whole discography as a frontman.

Can't remember if that blog has been mentioned here yet, but I've found tons of great stuff on there.

Great thread, not to jump all the way back to page 1 but that Japanese soundtrack is good stuff. I'll see if I can find anything to contribute to this thread but it seems like you guys already are hitting up the same blogs I do (milkcrate, blaxploitationpride, warbles, rappamello, neverenoughrhodes, flabbergastedvibes, joeblow, etc.)

Here's a prettty decent one, I didn't see it mentioned but I might have missed it.

How does that Ginger Baker collaboration compare to Fela Kuti's singles? The one you upped is the only release I have from him.

About 10 minutes ago I discovered this dank instrumental record that has apparently been in my iTunes since August 27. So far, it's the best album I've heard recently so I'm not sure why I never listened to it before.

Eddie Fisher & The Next Hundred Years (1971)
For some reason this reminds me of the reggae album Ranglin Roots.

http://www.mediafire.com/?t3zsem1vao77u92

Also heard this today:
Sort of like a faster version of "Night Of The Purple Moon" with some Indian influence.

Versive · Post by **Versive** » Sun Jan 30, 2011 12:36 am

I don't remember which Fela I upped prior to this, but on first listen this is very similar to Fela's regular stuff with perhaps a little more pronounced guitar work on some tracks, but Baker's drumming creates a really cool dynamic with Fela's percussion section. Also, this is a live album so there's that.

Doesn't really answer you question too well. My guess is if you like what you've heard from Fela or any of Baker's early post-Cream work, you'll dig this.

Da Me · Post by **Da Me** » Sun Jan 30, 2011 11:33 pm

You answered my question in reverse. The only one I have is the Ginger Baker one and I was wondering what else I should get from Fela.

Two incredible jazz albums I've been feelin' recently:
