The set is Goodman's masterpiece as a leader. The music flows, despite odd time signatures, managing to both sing and rock. People who were drawn to his electric violin sound in the Mahavishnu Orchestra will find this a much more lyrical setting. The recording was originally released by Private Music, which led retailers to mistakenly file it as "New Age." Instead it is mid-'80s fusion, built on elements of rock, jazz, electronic and classical music.
