"Are You Going With Me?" is so beautiful. x x x x x
Expansive09 Sep 15, 2020
Edited 3 years ago

Barcarole and Au Lait worth the price of ission or a kings ransom? Either way at this point the group had solidified with a new bassist, percussionist and tech by way of NED(New England Digital) and the sound was transcendent. Don't believe me take a swig with your ears and tell me in 2020 that ANY jazz or mainstream album (instrumental) even compares to the quality and vision of these fine musicians. Timeless = yes, still relevant = yes, unique = yes...what more could a listener want from an album?

"Are you going with me" is everything I could ever ask for from a mellow 80s fusion track. Divine!

Why would this be an extra release?
It´s a factory error of the regular edition, nothing more.

This albums worth the money for the track "Au Lait" it's about as chilled and dreamy as it can get.
All you need is a little patience........ the first part sets up the exquisite second but would not be complete without the intro. Sublime.
