Led by guitarist / composer Steve MorseFind albums by this artist, the band included also the great violinist Allen SloanFind albums by this artist. Mostly instrumental (except for a few tracks on the third album included here) the music displays an incredible virtuosity of the band members and the solid compositions were perfect vehicles for extended improvisations. This is definitely some of the best music recorded in the US in the early 1980s and deserves an honorable place in any serious Fusion record collection. Not to be missed!
