It's a 1982 release, so you have to expect a slightly dated and flattish recording compare to the nineties or current crisper productions. That said there are a few corking tracks here which cut the mustard. Marcus and Omar (how good a rhythm section!) do the business when required, and the opening drum intro from Mr.Hakim on the best track on the album (Rush Hour), is so funky. Dave Sanborn is a great alto & soprano sax player, and even back in the dim and distant eighties, is sooooo much better than the suicidal tiresome offerings from today's smooth jazz dullards. Fans of Marcus Miller also will find lots of trademark twanging to amuse & bemuse. This album is real low cost now, so sling it in the shopping basket.
