This will be the first time i'm not voting for the favourite. I'm going with Avant Garden. Some great instrumental work on this one including sax and flute. This rocks pretty hard at times. Herbie is the favourite here though and for good reason.

They are all good albums. I remember I was pretty psyched about Avant Garden when I bought it but after a while I grew tired of it, I'll have to revisit it soon.
Anyway I'm going with 5uu's, such a unique album, definitely 5 stars for me. Finest Finger is a close second.

Hunger's Teeth is the Dave Kerman show and I think I enjoyed it more than I ever have with my most recent listen.

Again I seem to be cheating, sorry John  Herbie has the best album here hands down, but I guess I'm more in an Italian mood lately - even if the guys from Sensations' Fix sound like they hail from Germany... confused yet? Good, me too  |

^ Those are fine fingers David.  Looks like Herbie is going through and deservedly so I suppose. Of the Mwandishi albums I prefer Sextant but this would be my second pick.

Well this is by far the closest poll yet, but these will be few and far between until round two. Nice pick Phil, I am suprised at the attention this album has received.

Since I only own one of these albums, I'm going for Sensations' Fix (though I cast no vote  ). Portable Madness is still a frad stronger than Finest Finger.

Never heard Avant Garden, but of the rest, Sensations' Fix is my favorite by far.
