...impressive: textures are clear and sharply defined, bass tones are rich and highs are scintillating. Sound loses itself in the infinity of space. A leap of imagination and one could be transported past the Pleiades, meditating on some barren asteroid and watching the comets streak by. The synthetic mode lends itself, as Bowie has proven in the past, to evoking the outer space reality in which much of his music dwells. Low is an unexpected break toward an entirely new form of rock...
...diplomatic shuttle, but not exactly in the Kissinger mode: no custom-fitted Air Force jet, no phalanx of aides, bodyguards and reporters. British Envoy Ivor Richard last week hopped from capital to capital in southern and eastern Africa in a modest chartered twin-engined Hawker Siddeley executive jet, arrived at airports with little fanfare and had only four Foreign Office staffers in tow.

Largely a creation of American civilization in the last century, this republic offers a foretaste of American life in our next century.

But the other numbers, including "Mes Trois Fils" and "Mode for Dulcimer," offer more in terms of improvisational beauty. This album is saxophone heavy which is good news for Gary Bartz fans. Bartz gives a performance on this album the likes we haven't heard since "Hiome." Tyner gives a newcomer, Joe Ford, a lot of leeway in his flute solos...
