Japanese Limited Edition Issue of the Dsd Mastered Album Classic in a Deluxe, Miniaturized LP Sleeve Replica of the Original Vinyl Album Artwork.
I think that this is a very easy album to overlook because its weaknesses appear so obvious: most of Taylor's songs are good, not great, and his voice is, at best, thin, and, at worst, a liability. What Taylor is good at, however, is playing guitar. His solos are models of economy, sophistication and tension. For sheer beauty, the two instrumental pieces which close the album represent the very best of the kind of fusion where rock incorporates jazz, rather than the other way around. I only wish he had continued in that direction rather than concentrate on blues exclusively, which seems to be what he has done since this release. Of all the classic guitarists that came out of the British pop scene, he remains the most underrated, the most subtle, and the most elusive. This album, even with its faults, wears better than any of, say, Jeff Beck's works, from the same period. And I like Beck a lot. Taylor, though, you can get lost in for years.
