This 12" single is a cut of three tracks from the 1980 contemporary jazz groove album "Nomad" by the great jazz drummer Chico Hamilton. The Latin rhythm on the A-side, with its beautiful mixed chorus and Kimbo's guitar solo, is just fantastic, but the B1, with its light Latin/Brazilian vibes, and the Cosmic Jazz Funk B2, with its gentle groove, are also great. The sound quality of the 12" is better than the album because it is cut at 45 rpm.
