I bought his Obession album back in 86

Electronic oriented Jazz - very enjoyable music

A good album but his CTI / Tappan Zee output from the early 70's are all classics.

Standout tracks:

Nautilus
Angela
Feel Like Makin' love
Westchester Lady
Women of Ireland.

Also worth checking out is his album "Explosions" on ESP which is free jazz meets electro-acoustic music and a million miles away from his lite and sunny jazz funk albums.

I have his Double Vision album featuring David Sanborn from 1986. The track MAPUTO is amazing.

I've heard quite a bit of his mid 70's-early 80's stuff (a friend of mine at school had a lot of his albums). Would love to hear that Explosions LP though.
