    If this was made by an American Jazz Funk group, it would be heralded as a classic. A magical album that still is great to listen to even today. They should have stayed with the Jazz Funk music vibe in my opinion, and this album proves why.

      I Love this Album but again the mastering by John Dent is a disaster !!!! Every time the same problem, no bass, flat sounds without dynamic !!!! Bad job John !!!! Five stars for the Album, zero stars for the mastering !!!!
