    I was subjected to this album in my younger years by my a friend who was into jazz fusion.
    Over the years as my music taste and hifi improved this album has grown on me.
    Recent listening reveals a quite amazing album full of depth, tonal colour and excitement.
    The standard release produces exceptional musical reproduction full of real musicians in analogue glory - not a sample in sight.
    Altogether a stunning listen that got flipped and will be played again.
