The cover of Thrust reveals a lot of the album. Herbie's sitting comfortablyin his spaceship controlled by a synth froman alien world, reachingto the clouds and beyond. Well, that's what his stature was in 1974 - one of the seminal renewers of Jazz by incorporating new electric instruments like theARP synthesizer. 

Thrust is the follow up to Head Hunters [MOVLP030] using the same band except for drummer Harvey Mason, who is replaced by Mike Clark, a Jazz great in his own right.

Again, only four songs on this single LP, each around 10 minutes long. "Butterfly" is a great spacy jam with intricate twists and turns. And when hearing the intro drum break of "Palm Grease", you know this is a must-have album for all you groove addicts!
