REVIEWS
Average points: 4.6 (Reviews: 5)
******
Top Funk, Jazz-Rock Album
*****
Good
****
Obwohl es das erste etwas poppigere Album der Band war, das damit auch gleichzeitig den Schritt in Richtung Verkaufserfolge ebnete, kann ich dem Album eine gewisse Klasse nicht absprechen. Insbesondere was die textlichen Inhalte angeht, ist es vielleicht sogar ihr bester Output überhaupt. Außerdem sind keine unnötig ausschweifenden Instrumentale wie früher zu hören. <br>Hinzu kommt der Einfluss der Earth, Wind & Fire Mitglieder Larry Dunn und Verdine White, die hier eine gehörige Portion zur guten Produktion beigetragen haben. <br><br>Nur bedingt durch einige etwas schwächere Lieder im Mittelteil des Albums wird eine noch höhere Wertung verhindert. 4 mit Tendenz zu 5.
****
In der Gesamtbetrachtung gesehen ein befriedigendes Album. Durchschnitt: 4,22.
