“BACK TO JAZZ.” Alphonse Mouzon Band. Pausa PR 7196. An odd title for the run-of-the-gristmill fusion date. The “band” is a quartet; Mouzon and the pianist double on synthesizers, with Doug Norwine’s plodding alto sax as the lone horn. Mouzon sings on the title song; he is joined by two young singing Mouzons, who have a combined age of 9, uttering cliche lyrics that have all the inspiration of a Robin Leach narration. 1 1/2 stars.
