Before RUN DMC, break dancing and listening to Herbie’s Future Shock…..came Sunlight the 1978 jazz-funk, fusion album featuring Hancock’s vocals through a vocoder and performances by drummer Tony Williams and Jaco Pastorius on bass.
Not as heavy as his early 80′s Electro stuff, but no longer jazz-funk fusion either, ‘I Thought It Was You’ sits somewhere in between. An oft overlooked cut but still real nice with it.
