Album Notes

"Just when you thought the electric bass was quietly sinking into a nostalgic role in jazz, here comes Gary Willis to remind you of its power. It may be that Willis is too unassuming a character to get the credit he deserves, as perhaps the mose exciting electric bassist around."

REVIEWS

Very good but not tiresome, relaxed but not predictable, five stars!
author: Niek van Rijsbergen
Solo-cd's from master instrumentalists are not always very interesting, musically speaking; this one, however, surely is! We hear plenty of awful chops from Willis and Chambers plus interesting contributions on keyboard and reeds. The music is scarcely predictable from moment to moment. Yet this cd is quite relaxed and not tiresome in the least. Very much recommended to all lovers of really good fusion.

First journey into jazz.
author: Jack
This is the 1st jazz I have ever bought. I listened to the sampler and really liked it. So now, I play it on the drive home. It seems different every time..sort of unpredictable even though I have heard it before.... I think that I am getting to like jazz. This cd really gets me grooving. Gonna buy some more Gary Willis stuff.
