Return To Forever – Romantic Warrior ( Columbia / 1976 )
The best-selling 6 th album of the progressive jazz band, that features rather an avant-garde style. The musical inspiration from the medieval themes is also marked by the unforgettable album cover.
Lenny White’s “Sorceress” has the groove in this album, it’s also our favorite.
