Reader Reviews
There has been a lot of mediocre electric jazz/hip-hop/fusion like cross-over stuff these days, but this album is just plain killin' y'all. Harris's original compositions on here are beautiful, his improvisation brilliant. Great soloing from Marc Cary on keys and Casey Benjamin on alto. Terreon Gully's drumming is perhaps the real standout; ridiculously ingenious grooves and accompaniment. Dang, the only other younger cat who can keep up with him these days it seems like is Ronald Bruner in Kenny Garrett's band, but they aren't doing nearly as cool arrangements as these... If you want to get your hands on some of the hippest new stuff out there you can't go wrong with this, yo :)
