Notes: Here's a
record full of jazz reaching into the four corners of the Earth for
inspiration. Bordering on prog at times the quartet have chops galore
and the sense to weave splendid dynamics into the songs. Interesting
front cover painting and a casual portrait on the back cover completes
the package.
