Thrust is overlooked though agree there

I find it impossible to compare Hancock's fusion works to his jazz/Blue Note works, the only thing I like about Sextant is that it literally sounds like it came from the other end of the universe

It is? It's considered his #1 by actual musicians

>>74089648
I'd take Hancock's Blue Note stuff over a lot of his fusion material, I've bought nearly all of the Blue Note stuff he put out

the rhythm section work on 'Thrust' is some of the best I've ever heard, the only other fusion album I think that comes close is Brand X's first album; the Mahavishnu Orchestra rhythm section is too dependent on drums in my opinion
