    Windows Of The Mind LP (1974)

    Crossover Records

70s big band jazz solo effort by veteran reedsmith Billy Brooks. This is what heads call in the field a "one tracker", but boy is it sweet!  Tribe Vibes. Check the jam "Forty Days" which hard core 90s hip hop enthusiasts will applaud for being the sample source for beats by groups like a Tribe Called Quest and Keith Murray. Due to rarity, this album has commanded coin.  With its hefty price tag and mediocre content , you get the word "overrated" used a lot in conversation.  It maybe, but "Forty Days" stands the test of time as one of the best jazz funk bangers in existence.
