 Rating:  - Best of the BestMore Fusion then Jazz (which was what I thought it would be), and one of the best CD's I have in my collection. If you like it motivating and a little hard you want this CD. Rating: - One of the best bands to ever walk the planetThey may have not been the first fusion band to use the electric guitar as a lead instrument, but I think it's safe to say RTF was the best fusion band to come out of the post-Miles 70's era. Mahavishnu was great, but they never had the ensemble playing approach that RTF had. You can clearly hear it on this anthology. The solos are fierce, but they fit the concept of the song and not the other way around. One of the best things about this anthology (besides the price which is crazy) is that their two greatest albums are found on here in their entirety.

These guys pretty much defined jazz/rock fusion. Before Stanley no one played the electric bass with so much authority. Al Di meola was second only to John Mclaughlin. Of course Chick is Chick in any genre. What really amazes me about the recording is the drumming of Lenny White. I forgot what a monster he was and still is. This music brings back fond memories of a time when music was being stretched to it's limits and beyond. Not everyones cup of tea, then or now. But these guys started a revolution that forced other players to hone their chops and make it possible to have the folks we have today! I'm not as amazed at the technical wizardry now as I was back then because it is common to hear players today who have taken fusion to ... Read More: Rating: - RTF simply the bestAll the greatest songs from the seminal fusion band in one place and remastered to boot. Also went to their reunion concert, and they are better than ever. Lokking forward to a possible new album. |
