4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Acid Jazz!!, January 27, 2004

"Unchain Your Mind" is an interesting mix of the instrumental format that has some people shaking their heads and some people dancing their behinds off. Jazz purists will shun this music as they will say its not Jazz. People like me who love new ventures into the Jazz format will embrace it. I first heard the group in 1995 on the track "90 Degrees in the Shade" on an acid jazz compilation cassette. I was immediately hooked on the song and searched for the CD. With the exception of one track, a bizzare version of the "Hawaii 5-0 theme" that I didn't care for, this CD is great!! Recommended!!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my very favorite CDs ever, February 3, 2003

Absolutely fantastic. This is one of the CDs that you put in your changer, and NEVER take out. I'm shopping for another copy for my house. Obviously, 90 Degrees in the Shade is what attracted me to Heavyshift, but there are a few very pleasant surprises on this CD. Hawaii Five 0, Obey the Rules of the Night and Unchain Your Mind will have you rocking all night. But it is truly one of those CDs that you just put in, push play, and let it go. Thank goodness CDs don't wear out, otherwise I'd be in trouble.

5.0 out of 5 stars Feel cool while playing 90 degrees in the shade, May 8, 2004

through I do not own the album by Heavyshift. But I rate the one song 90 degrees in the shade with 5 stars ten if possible, this song is the true acid jazz. A well blend of the alto sax, keyboards, organ in the background. An excellent song to help you free the mind and have you think you are driving down on a night outing in Miami. This song played frequently on smooth jazz 105.9 in Wash DC. I am quite sure that the rest of the CD sound just as great.
