Elektrik Band of Chick Corea.

At least there is some tempo in the music, so it doesn't fall in the category I call Fuzak, like Spyro Gyro and Yellowjackets.

The production is loud and it all sounds very distant. There are electronic drums, programmed drums, synths, sequencers all over the place, drowning the sparse saxophone-moments. I cannot say that this album is essential Wayne Shorter-stuff.

I like my jazzrock and fusion, but not this way. The band sounds like Rush or Yes these days. The eighties were a difficult time for jazz-musicians. And although there was a bop-revival (Hubbard, Shaw, Marsalis) some artists jumped on the electric fusion-train and this one is electric fusion at its loudest.
