I prefer A Funky Thide of Sings myself. From this list, has to be Crosswinds.

Good poll!
 
I'll go for Spectrum because that album is not simply a Cobham album, it's also a Tommy Bolin and Jan Hammer album, and those three made some incredible rockin' jazz.
Crosswinds is good, but not that good. Total Eclipse is better on the composition side, but I miss a bit of the raw energy of the debut.

I really like "Crosswinds".  Side two is worth the cost alone.  Plus, it's as close as you're going to get to a Dreams reunion (w\George Duke on keyboards).

Spectrum is the first and classical; following albums, with all honour, are only slight modifications of genuine original.
