Cut from the same cloth as last few Santana records, yet somehow it's better. The drawback was the inescapable cheesy New Age/jazz fusion mood, further bolstered by front man Alex Ligertwood's flashy vocals. Parts of this remind me 80's era Genesis, too. Overall, it's a relatively fun ride, with lots of furious dramatic jamming and even a good hit tune this time around – "Winning", which typified the overall positive message of the record.
