This was one of the earliest entries in the GRP catalog. It's a keyboard-dominated session, and definitely has a commercial sound to it. There are, however, enough drumming calisthenics to satisfy the intended audience.
Cobham's band is not as exciting or as distinguishable as those from his days in the '70s, but the personnel is certainly adequate for the music being played. In particular, "Slow Body Poppin'" contains a fine
Larry Carlton-influenced solo by
Dean Brown. The remake of "Stratus" was interesting, but does not do the original justice. This is recommended mostly for the
Cobham faithful. ~ Robert Taylor
