In addition to his regular backing band, DiMeola is assisted by Chick Corea (keyboards), Steve Gadd (drums), and other fellow fusion luminaries, resulting in one of his finest latter-day recordings.

Editorial Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- [T]here's a much better balance between technical prowess and emotional sensitivity in the guitarist's work.
Mojo

The album is a mixture of funk, fusion and world music, and Di Meola has his well-known imprint all over each song.
