Un disco interamente composto da Alan Gowen, in uno stile che anticipa certe sonorità dei National Health, una jazz fusion con qualcosa di rock nell'uso della chitarra un po' zappiana (Worlds Of Zin), un po' di funky (One And More), introduzioni alla Hatfield And The North (Lady And Friends) e coretti alla Northettes.
Sono tutte composizioni di pregio strumentale e tecnico ma alla fine un po' insipide all'ascolto senz'anima.
Cesare Rizzi da The Prog Side Of The Moon ed. Giunti (2010)
