"I hate to plug Best Buy but in these economic times we can all stand to save a few bucks. 9.99. As I was waiting for my daughter to pick out a camera, I told her to meet me at the car. By the time she got there, it had morphed into a time machine and it was 1974 once again. Where can you get that type of thrill for 10 bucks, I ask????????????"

"very nicely " decorated " CD with excellent jazz rock tunes in a limited line up very well remastered (I still have the record)
It often occurs that the early recordings of jazz rock musicians are the best ones and this one is no exception to the rule.
influances from the time he joined the band of Frank Zappa are obvious.
highly recommend this cd especially in a nostalgic point of view"

"Faces in Reflection and Feel are two great records, quintessential jazz-rock of the time, with a dash of funk. Both lurk somewhere around Weather Report and Return to Forever of the period. It's happy and action packed. Mid 70s American jazz fusion was brilliant, along with some of the English work by Nucleus and Soft Machine, and usually in quieter mode the ECM label.
For me The Aura Will Prevail wasn't quite as good, but I recall all three as sitting together as a suite in similar style quite well. But to my ears this one was the best of the three."
