Often assumed to be a single person, D-Train was originally a collaborative effort between James "D-Train" Williams and keyboardist/producer Hubert Eaves III. Among artists on independent labels, this Brooklyn-based duo was the commercial pinnacle of post-disco dancefloor soul, notching four top 20 singles in 1982 and 1983 for Prelude Records.

The third and fourth movements of this classic piece by the legendary Donny Hathaway features solos by Cornell Dupree on guitar and Willie Weeks on bass.
This album is probably Zawinul's first full out world music venture. It's a great album, slightly better than Heavy Weather I think, and most people know this as Jaco's debut with Weather Report, however, you don't really notice Jaco that much. Alphonso Johnson plays REALLY well on his final studio album with Weather Report.
Black Market,1976.
