Tony was ahead of his time. I had this album when it came out....very reminiscent of the RTF stuff but still excellent in it's own right. Like dude said "loved it then and loving it again now" The musicianship is sterling.
kickass tune, but Pasqua's tentative solo drags down Tony's confident, driving accompanyment; the conflict between Pasqua's minor chords and Newton's major gaffe around 2:56 doesn't help either ... all's forgiven, however, once Holdsworth jumps in and propels the piece to a whole 'nother level - a whole 'nother place ... I went through two copies of this vinyl, too
@DoctorPatient I hear what you are talking about. I was thinking the other day that this song is what I would require from musicians if I was to listen to techno music. Holdsworth does a great job of graffiti, and then hones in on one 3 chord idea for Tony to tell. Fusion makes sense to my ears.
@dtsjr1227 I know what you mean. When I first heard this album I was blown away,when I would go to the record store,if I say somone looking at that album I would tell them to buy it and if they didn't like it I would buy it from them.
@jimmi123ish Oh heck yeah...I bet you didnt have to buy any from anyone because how could they not love it. Amazing music and musicianship. Happy New Year to all my fellow true audiophiles!!
I love it too. A friend made a cassette tape for me. Then lost it. Thank god for youtube.

First heard this song in 2009-just love it, especially the beginning introduction-takes the cake.
