Crosswinds is the second album of fusion drummer Billy Cobham. It was used as the basis for the Souls of Mischief's hit song "93 'til Infinity". Billy Cobham's second date as a leader was one of his better sessions. Four songs (all originals by the leader/drummer) comprise "Spanish Moss - A Sound Portrait," and, in addition, Cobham contributed three other pieces.
