Reviews
The album music is a revolutionary album. This album is for mind expansion. The sound is wonderful and is the music is years ahead of a lot of stuff that is labelled as "jazz" today. The preponderance of electronic or non-wind instruments encourages a lack of feeling in music. -- Autolady006 07:04, 21 January 2008 (PST)
