Can't say I'm a fan ... but he's fine on some albums I enjoy (including "Blue Moses"!). One I really enjoyed a lot more than expected is his encounter with Kenny Burrell, "Togethering" from 1985 (became aware thanks to the 2000 CD reissue). Quite amazing to just listen to Ron Carter and Jack DeJohnette, btw!
