This is an excellent collection of
jazz and
fusion numbers featuring the wholesome, peerless vocals of
Maysa Leak and group newcomer
Mark Anthoni. With gritty, urban rhythms and painstaking arrangements,
Leak's radiant vocals ring with invitation. The lyrical content is upright and substantive. All the songs have an aggressive backbeat regardless of their tempo, providing an unobstructed platform for these artistic musicians to express their chic brand of music. Group leader
Jean-Paul "Bluey" Maunick's vision of intertwine various genres of music (
bebop,
soul,
classical,
dance, etc.) into one incomparable sound is exemplary.
