"Canadian bass master Alain Caron presents his third solo effort after co-leading jazz-fusion band UZEB during 15 years. Here you'll find not only 6-string fretted & fretless tour-de-force playing, but some great music. Check it out the horns arrangements in some tunes like "D-code". Funk slapping, gorgeous fretless solos, intrincate rhythms and some catchy songs...do you like fusion?"

"Hey this guy is so good, and I've seen Weather Report when Jaco was still with them [may he rest in peace]. Alain Caron is a musician's musician. The piano player kicks pretty seriously too. Why aren't guys this good better known? Obviously few people appreciate the quality and standard these people can reach.
OK the compositions are a little off beat at times. There's no vocal. But it's a great album."
