A meeting between a master of easy listening and New York's elite.
This ambitious album features top New York session musicians such as the Brecker Brothers, Will Lee, and John Tropea. Its fusion of French easy listening and American fusion shows the potential of crossover music in the late 1970s. It beautifully blends sophisticated orchestration with highly improvisational performances.
