Bob James' 11th album includes "Marco Polo," a familiar song from the Suntory commercial.
This album features a sexy and catchy jacket, a departure from the creepy and unpopular jacket work of the previous album. The first track, "Ludwig," features a fusion arrangement of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9.
Marcus Miller's funky bass and Steve Gatt's precise drumming are must-listen.
