4.0 out of 5 stars Great modern fusion, May 25, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Reality Check (Audio CD)

This is a strong effort by the californian aliens of fusion. It is one the best records of the 90's. The compositions are sophisticated but the solos are still soulful and bluesy (especially those by Scott Henderson). I'm myself a bass player for about 12 years and I think Gary Willis is one the most interesting modern bass players. His solos are very impressive. The man has so many good ideas and his groove is great. The track "Nite Club" (written by Gary Willis) alone make this album a must buy. "Foreign Affairs" (written by Scott Kinsey, a wonderful keyboard player) is also a great fusion tune even if it's very Weather Reportish (but how to avoid this influence ?) .

This album is one of their best!
I have been a fan since 1991 and will always be. Their talent and creativity is at the top! Few people can grasp their writings and style, that's sad because it satisfies the soul.

Incredible songwriting and musicianship by the best of the best. You can listen a few times just to the guitar, then focus on the bass, drums, keys... Every time you listen you will hear something for the first time. The album has some parts which seem to make it lose momentum here and there, thus not quite 5 stars. Get it.
