Pretty agree that the production suffer of lack of power and clarity. But some songs are amazing on this records, jazz-rock take sometimes all his sense. And there are some sax attacks that john zorn himself won't deny !

Another attempt to elevate rock-jazz fusion into a style of its own, without letting one of the components dominate. Inventive arrrangements notwithstanding, much on this album sounds forced. A few tracks could pass for accompanying music to some seventies BBC police series. The flute of Downes himself is beyond critisism: agile and expressive all the way. Still the overall sound is asthmatic and thick. A pity that the unexpected ballad ''In your eyes'' is clogged with brass too. Maybe Downes was overestimating himself when he took the production chair.
