School Days (1976) was a game-changer for the legendary Stanley Clarke in many ways. A solid funk, rock, jazz and fusion release that only this master jam could achieve.
This 1975 album is one of a kind in lots of ways. First, it's keyboardist Roland Haynes' only album. But more importantly, Second Wave has a sound-and line-up-unlike pretty much any other jazz fusion album to comeout before or since.
Bass player Jaco Pastorious's third album from 1983 shows his skill for leading a talented band, which included Randy Brecker, Bob Mintzer, Toots Thielemans, Peter Erskine, Othello Molineaux and Don Alias.
