Moments Worth Listening For
The expansive eight-minute build of Knock On Wood where the percussion section locks into a relentless, hypnotic groove.
Benson's fluid, lightning-fast guitar runs on the title track that bridge the gap between bebop complexity and funk accessibility.
The shift into a distinct Latin rhythmic pocket during Melodia Español that showcases the session's high-energy ensemble chemistry.
