Fantastic melodies and beautiful sound quality. It's the best balance of their work with a groovy backdrop for parties and road trips. This was a slow burning album that I gradually came to really appreciate over time.

It's interesting how different the sound is compared to the albums produced by Terry Date and Nick Raskulinecz!
