Negative Positive
Title: A Progression Forward in Places, Meandering in Others
Review: At least one track here moves forward into even more adventurous and individualistic territory (even more than "Sorcerer"). The title track abandons jazz and blues forms in favor of inimitable Tony Williams-fueled crescendos.And most of the rest of the tracks here are pretty good in and of themselves. But the band seems to have reached a peak with each other by this point, and most of the playing here doesn't reach the peaks of the two previous albums.
Is the review positive or negative?
