"When I first got this CD, I couldn't stop listening to it. Tom Scott is probably one of the best fusion players around today, and this CD really shows his talent. It features the original L. A. Express band as well, and there's no lack of good players in them. A must for all Tom Scott fans."

Back to the fusion

"When you first heard this band live, it was like hearing a more rocking version of the Crusaders (with Joe Sample and Larry Carlton on board, bringing the notable sonic similarity). This was a great band to hear live, it's a shame they didn't stay together long enough to record a live album at the Baked Potato in North Hollywood where this band used to woodshed. This great record will give you a taste of how "fusion" can be when it's done with true taste and jazz chops. No overbearing typewriter music or ridiculous overtures, just foot-tapping fun. And Scott's beautiful "Spindrift" is worthwhile all by itself, a beautiful melodic mood enhanced by the sound of Carlton's silky guitar and drummer John Guerin's wonderful rhythmic spirit."
