Was just listening to this for the first time the other day. Great stuff with some pretty musical hooks. The musicians fed off each other tremendously. The closing track is awesome.

I really took to the seminal jazz sax albums:

Coltranes Love Supreme
Rollins' Saxophone Colossus
Hendersons Page One
Nelsons Blues and the Abstract Truth

But this one still escapes me for some reason. I keep trying, but it hasn't moved me the way the others have. I"ll keep trying; maybe it'll click someday.
