| Back in the good-old-days of fusion, before it became the "f" word, there were bands o' plenty dishing out compelling, interesting, even melodic instrumental adventures. These guys harken back to those days, and they do so without a hint of apology. Think Jean-Luc Ponty, with a sax replacing the violin. There are shades of Al Dimeola, Weather Report, and other influences of the 70's kind. "Mike's Turn" & "A Walk In The Desert" are particularly hummable tunes, yet completely different stylistic. Downsides? Well, lengthy solos are what made early fusion great (or was that "grate"?), but any album that contains a baritone sax solo that clocks in at nearly five minutes should be viewed with a modicum of caution. The tunes'll bring you back, though. | |
