The four hundred and twenty-ninth album: #429 Crusaders - Street Life
A jazz fusion album only works as well for me as the fusion part gets its chance to shine. The tracks on Street Life show this off well - while the title track is the longest on the album, its funkier structure with vocals kept me more engaged than the more pure jazz tracks that followed. Night Faces, the final track, probably grabbed me more than the others, bookending the album nicely, but this brought me no closer to appreciating jazz.
