[1989] Mezzoforte / Playing For Time (Full Album)

Another gem from Iceland’s leading jazz-fusion group Mezzoforte! This is one of their best of all time to me, featuring one of my favorites since the late 80s, “Take A Breath“...sounding quite similar to T-Square at times. Tracklist: 1. Playing For Time 0:00 2. Expressway 5:17 3. Magic 9:47 4. Take A Breath 14:42 5. Prime Time 20:02 6. Hitchhiker 25:35 7. High Season 29:35 8. Quick Step 34:30 9.
