Alphonso Johnson "Balls To The Wall"

More proof, that 1976, was a breakout year for electric fusion jazz.  Check out another electric jazz bass master... Alphonso Johnson, and his composition, "Balls To The Wall".  The band lineup is:

Alphonso Johnson (electric bass)
Patrice Rushen (electric piano, clavinet)
Ian Underwood (synthesizers)
Ray Gomez (guitars)
Chester Thompson (drums)
Sheila Escovedo (congas)

Quite the band lineup.  All these players, are heavy hitters from the fusion scene.
