THIS MIGHT VERY WELL BE ONE OF STANLEY CLARKES MOST INSTRUMENTALLY AND CREATIVELY SATISFYING FUSION RECORDINGS. THE DANCEABLE AND VERY FUNKY SONG BASICALLY TAPS FEATURES CLARKES SLAMMING BASS LICKS WITH THE RHYTHM PROVIDED BY NOTHING BUT GREGORY HINES TAP DANCING FEET. ON THE POLICE-LIKE SONG STORIES TO TELL CLARKE TEAMS UP WITH DRUMMER STEWART COPELAND AND GUITARIST ALLAN HOLDSWORTH IN A POWER TRIO. I WANT TO PLAY FOR YA IS AN OLD SCHOOL FUNKY TALKING BASS THANG AND THE JAZZIEST TUNE HERE IS TRADITION A SORT OF A MODERN ELECTRIC VERSION OF 50S MODERN JAZZ WERE CLARKE IS ACCOMPANIED BY A RHYTHM SECTION CONSISTING OF BASSIST JAMES EARL AND DRUMMER GERRY BROWN.
