This album is by the jazz-funk group led by brothers Michael and Randy Brecker. The title track won a Grammy Award (Best R&B Instrumental), marking a high point in their career.
The high-energy ensemble unfolds, blending complex breaks with powerful funk beats. The horn arrangements, featuring Michael's tenor sax and Randy's trumpet, are extremely precise yet powerful. Marcus Miller's bass lines drive the entire track, and the two performers unleash their virtuoso solos on top of them. The song is meticulously structured, boasting a high level of perfection as a studio-recorded fusion sound.
