George Benson - Body Talk
CTI Records - CTI 6033
Never played this much due to an edge warp that seems to have been mostly cured by long term storage/improved TT setup. Not my favorite, but love the final track.

Now playing;

John Renbourn - S/T
Reprise - 2RS 6482
Not for sale promotional copy with white labels on records.
Unsure of the release date on this, tracks recorded 1965-66, not all that long before Pentangle was formed.
 
Eleventh House/Larry Coryell - Aspects
(1976, Arista) STERLING in the deadwax

Jazz Rock Fusion a touch more on the jazz side of the balance with blistering guitar playing from Mr. Coryell. Inspired by Cactus Bob.
 
3 - To The Power Of Three
(1988, Geffen) Promo/NFS; Artisan symbol in the deadwax; Keith Emerson, keyboards, Carl Palmer, drums, Robert Berry, guitar

It has it's moments with the unmistakeable Emerson keyboards, but unfortunately also lots of bland 80's style vocals/lyrics + digital arrangements, and I'm not sure if I'll make it all the way through. But I want to hear their cover of 8 Miles High.
 
Freddie Hubbard - Gettin' It Together
(1961, TCB) w/ Curtis Fuller, Yusef Lateef

early 60s cool jazz sounds very nice to these ears, great trumpet from Freddie Hubbard and great flute sounds from Yusef Lateef, trombone from Curtis Fuller from Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers and a frequent artist on Hubbard's titles.
