Right now playing Nefertiti and can't say I'm much impressed - the only album I've really enjoyed is In a Silent Way. Mahavishnu Orchestra's debut album I really like, great album. Also dig the first Billy Cobham solo albums. Should explore more this kind of music.

Miles Davis is great - I've really been getting into his stuff lately. I listened to A Tribute to Jack Johnson last night, and that is really great stuff!

I don't have the first Mahavishnu album (I have the second), and I completely agree that the first few Cobham albums are great. I especially love Spectrum, which is possibly my favorite jazz album. Do you have any Herbie Hancock stuff? His classic albums are pretty good...

Vehemency wrote: Not sure have I ever heard Hancock's solo stuff, I think that's a musician whose solo stuff I should check out. Any specific recommendations? And while we're at it, I think Chick Corea is another I should explore.

Well I don't have all of these, but Herbie's most acclaimed albums are Crossings, Sextant, Head Hunters, and Thrust. The only stuff I have from Chick Corea is the album I purchased earlier today and his work with Miles Davis (I think)...

Received today, and can't stop staring at this wooden box! Including the contents with great artwork, must be the most beautiful thing in my shelves now.

For those interested, they play "pop / neofolk with limited singing and playing skills" as they say themselves, and includes members from Circle of Ouroborus and Somnivore, so what could be better! Sample track for those who dare. ;-)

Just got these non-metal albums...

Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame
Miles Davis Quintet - Relaxin' With Miles
Hawkwind - Hall of the Mountain Grill
