This effort by guitarist
Chuck Loeb is an easy-listening set full of strong melodies and having just enough variety to hold one's interest throughout the entire CD. Joined by a fine supporting cast which includes keyboardist
Jon Werking and
Bob Mintzer on tenor and bass clarinet,
Loeb displays an attractive guitar sound that at various times recalls
Wes Montgomery,
Grant Green or
Larry Carlton. A particular surprise is that "Eternal Flame," a pop tune associated with
the Bangles, is transformed into a sensitive ballad.
