They loom large in his legend (The Album Collection playlists): Part 1; Part 2; Part 3; Part 4; Part 5; Part 6
Active compensatory factors: Kokoroko is a jazz fusion band led by Sheila Maurice-Grey (trumpet), Cassie Kinoshi (sax), Oscar Jerome (guitar), Onome Edgeworth (percussion), plus others, playing a fusion of jazz, funk and Ghanaian music. That brew equals jazz fusion in my world.

Could We Be More is their debut album. It's rather wonderful on a hot day in the summer holidays while you sit in the right spot to catch potential cool breezes.
Where do they all belong? This was a punt - it was in the under 30 dollar rack at JB Hi Fi. Now I'll be on the lookout for their second and latest album - Tuff Times Never Last, released a few months ago.
