Cobham's impressive list of collaborators here include keyboardist Jan Hammer, guitarist Tommy Bolin, electric bassist Lee Sklar and Ray Barretto on congas. Cobham was fresh off his success with the Mahavishnu Orchestra when he recorded Spectrum.The guitar licks from Bolin (Zephyr, James Gang, Deep Purple), who overdosed three years later, are particularly memorable and he merges beautifully with Cobham's Mahavishnu band mate Hammer. Spectrum reached No. 1 on the jazz charts around the world and became a crossover phenomenon, serving as a big influence on the burgeoning funk/jazz and fusion movements.All the hallmarks of a top-notch Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) reissue are here for you to savor Mastered directly from the original master tape by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio and cut at 45 RPM.

Ever since his time with John McLaughlin's Mahavishnu Orchestra (1971-1973), the drummer Billy Cobham is one of electric fusion jazz's greatest heroes. InchTotal EclipseInch was the third album he made as a leader within just a few months, and here again he composed all the numbers himself. In the opening 'suite' entitled InchSolarizationInch (eleven minutes long) he already shows his broad and certainly refined stylistic spectrum. Cobham's music leaps from high-energy jazz-rock with wild guitar and thundering volleys on the drums to highly original improvisations on the piano and winds. Smooth electric Latin grooves and gripping funky numbers are not missing either. Cobham's handpicked band is bursting with virtuosos. A look at the names of the three-man wind section proves the point Michael Brecker, Randy Brecker, Glenn Ferris are highlights in themselves. And the then 30-year-old band leader himself was the non plus ultra when it came to jazz-rock drumming technique - his amazingly rapid drum volleys are just as sensational today as they were then. With this album this exceptional drummer will thrill all fans of first-class fusion sound similar to Weather Report or Return To Forever. This Speakers Corner reissue LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head. More information under Pure-analogue. #com.

Billy Preston - InchEncouraging WordsInch [Gold LP] Billy Preston's fifth studio album, Encouraging Words, was released in September 1970 through Apple Records. It marked his second and final project for the Beatles' tag before signing with A&M Records. Co-produced by Preston and George Harrison, the album featured the first released versions of Harrison's InchAll Things Must PassInch and InchMy Sweet Lord,Inch appearing two months ahead of Harrison's own recordings on his landmark triple album, All Things Must Pass. Preston's take on InchMy Sweet LordInch was issued as a single and reached #90 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1971, though the album itself did not chart in the US or UK. While commercially overlooked, Encouraging Words has since been praised by some critics as one of Apple's strongest non-Beatles releases. Presented on limited edition gold vinyl through Dark Horse Records. Album Tracks 1. Right Now 2. Little Girl 3. Use What You Got 4. My Sweet Lord 5. Let the Music Play 6. Same Thing Again 7. I've Got a Feeling 8. Sing One for the Lord 9. When You Are Mine 10. I Don't Want You to Pretend 11. Encouraging Words 12. All Things (Must) Pass 13. You've Been Acting Strange
