Good for what it is
J. T. Schulz | Tha Lou | 03/02/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)

"As some have already asserted, this is not the music you'd expect from the funk/ fusion Roy Ayers of Mystic Voyage. This album is a whole other kind of beast. Ayers and band do lay down the funk, but without electric instruments and effects that can actually overpower the musical element. Hancock always comes through with strong solos and Ayers' improvisation on "Wave" is nothing short of ecstacy. If anything, it suffers from songs that are a little too long and a disk that is way too short. Lush orchestration and top-notch musicianship are the staples that make this LP a solid effort."

"If you love the vibes, then you'll love this cd. Roy Ayers has been around for decades and is still one of my favs. Play this one by candlelight, while sipping wine with the company of someone special!!"
