AOR fusion that combines sophistication and technique
A well-balanced AOR album incorporating elements of jazz and rock. The warm sound created by the collaboration between Neil Larsen and Buzz Feiten is impressive.
Neil Larsen's keyboard and arranging skills and Buzz Feiten's guitar expression meticulously blend to create a sophisticated sound. The stability of the rhythm section and the richness of the horns and strings create a spacious feel to the songs, striking an exquisite balance between pop and technical skill. For example, "Who'll Be the Fool Tonight" is catchy yet has a satisfying structure in terms of the texture of the performance. Overall, this is a work that highlights the precision and individuality of the performance within a soft listening experience, allowing you to fully experience the charm that is an extension of Larsen-Feiten.
