Description:

[Crossover & Fusion 1000] The new "Crossover & Fusion 1000" series is a spin-off of the highly successful "Jazz Collection 1000" series launched in 2014. Like the Jazz Collection 1000 series, the new "Crossover & Fusion 1000" series is carefully selected from Sony Music's extensive catalog, focusing on Columbia and RCA, the two major labels in the United States. The 100 titles (Volume 1: 50 titles released on April 27, Volume 2: 50 titles released on May 25) are released at the special price of 1,000 yen plus tax (1,500 yen plus tax for the 2-disc set). This ambitious album was released in 1978, the year after the mega-hit album "Heavy Weather". It includes the premiere performances of Joe Zawinul's "Young and Fine," Jaco Pastorius' "Punk Jazz," and other classic tunes. The album also features a splendid supporting cast including Maurice White, Tony Williams, Steve Gadd, and others. ◆Limited Time Limited Special Price Edition (through December 31, 2017) / Liner notes / Original release date: 1978
