  • Jazz Fusion Dogfight

    5 out of 5 stars
    _Iphpiyaxifu_17 March 2025United States🇺🇸

    Stunning blend of Jazz fusion and jungle-inspired progressive rock. Quite an oddball release for the label, yet a fantastic showcase of Jazz's direction in the 80s. The last track, for some reason, always transports me to an intense, high-altitude dogfight over a Pacific isle.

  • Jazz Fusion Dogfight

    _Akbvoyemifo_14 November 2024United States🇺🇸

    Gorgeous and untamed blend of Jazz fusion and jungle-esque progressive rock. Quite an oddball for the label, yet a fantastic showcase of Jazz's direction in the 80's. The last track inexplicably transports me to a frenzied, high-altitude dogfight over a Pacific isle.
