Panamanian-born jazz saxophonist Carlos Garnett was a gifted soloist, composer, and bandleader. He is best known for appearing on Miles Davis' 1972's classic On the Corner. He also released five spiritual, oft-sampled jazz-funk classics for Muse during the '70s: Journey to Enlightenment and Black Love (1974); Let This Melody Ring On (1975), Cosmo Nucleus (1976), and New Love (1978). They showcased Garnett's spiritual approach to, and transformation of, jazz-funk. He spent a decade away from music and returned to Muse for 1996's acoustic Resurgence, followed by Fuego en Mi Alma a year later. His quintet issued the straight-ahead Under Nubian Skies in 1999. The final studio album to appear under his own name was 2001's illustrious, self-produced Moon Shadow.
