EDITORIAL REVIEWS
CD reissue. This album is a landmark collaboration of two of the very best in the jazz-rock fusion. George Duke tended to have a strong Brazilian element with Stanley Clarke focusing more on his funk-rock side. Both had a way of scrambling musical elements together to create something pretty unique and very stimulating creatively. The slamming funk splatters of the rousing instrumental opener 'Wild Dogs' and the vocal numbers 'Winners' and 'Let's Get Started' where this collection finds it's full flower. Other highlights the slick, up-tempo R&B of 'I Just Want To Love You', the quirky cover of Richard Berry's infamous 'Louie, Louie' and George Duke's 'Finding My Way'.
