CD Fan Review
Allan
Holdsworth's second album is where the fretboard wizard truly found
his voice and really took off.
His
dynamic compositions and quickfire electric guitar leads soar, taking
his music to sonic heights where very few, if any, could reach.
The
guitarist, bassist Jeff Berlin and drummer Chad Wackerman (Frank
Zappa, Andy Summers) flex their musical muscles on an eclectic mix of
instrumentals and vocal tracks featuring singers Paul Williams and
Cream legend Jack Bruce.
Highlights
include "Three Sheets to the Wind," "Tokyo Dream"
(the original rock version; a later, jazzier version appears on
Holdsworth's 1992 release Wardenclyffe Tower), and "Was
There?" (with vocals by Bruce).
