Transcription

Production

The album was produced by Jay Beckenstein.[4] Alex Ligertwood, formerly of Santana, sings on "Patterns in the Rain" and "Send Me One Line". It was the first time a Spyro Gyra album contained vocals in English.[5][6] The Tower of Power Horns played on the album.[4] The group experimented with the songs on tour before recording them.[7] ""Waltz for Isabel" is a tribute to Beckenstein's third daughter.[8]

AllMusic[9]

The Chicago Tribune deemed the album "a rather leaden excursion into R&B-flavored pop-fusion."[10] The Boston Herald concluded that "beneath this somewhat tougher exterior beats the same faint musical heart, full of sweet melodies, perky rhythms and chatty solos—but every bit as empty of risk and guts as ever."[11]
