Sure you can find several small criticisms. If you subtract the Bossa Nova ("Belo Horizonte"), which could also be of Michael Franks, 9 tracks remain with the playing time of about 40 minutes, carrying the EWF handwriting and tie to my mind sound-wise to the Illumination 2005 , But if you listen more precisely purely in the disk, you will - especially when EWF fan -. Must recognize how great it has become really. Even a seemingly trashy "Night Of My Life" is to a large EWF cinema, at the latest after the voice of Philip Bailey uses. The purchase price is definitely worth the drive. When I think how much fun I had already the repeated listening to the plate and the price on the 9 tracks (that's my statement, to "Belo Horizonte" I could have done without ^^ ;-)) and only charge the number of listening, so is the bottom line a lot of fun for little money. For EWF fans who always have each plate, this one is a must anyway. Who does not merely superficial listening the disc, but the great instrumentation and vocals also appreciate, will have more of the plate. Fortunately, the dynamic compression keeps within limits, ie the mix does not press too hard and musical sounds. The illumination was exhausting in this regard. Sonically this record is already pretty close to illumination, but mastering technically but more relaxed, although the instrumentation is pretty tight. An arrangement was therefore not saved. Is just modern. No large string ensembles as before. In some wind-Takes you probably chose the same record the whole band at once? ... ;-) This takes have then more so live character. But most other radical sounds after meticulous studio work. That someone is in 2013 there still is so much trouble. ^^ Can reward you just by buying the CD. ;-) Thanks EWF, again! :-)
