American saxophonist Joe Farrell, who played on Chick Corea's 1972 ECM release "Return to Forever" and later played in Corea's group of the same name, released this album on CTI in 1978. A quartet with Elvin Jones (ds), Chick Corea (p), and Buster Williams (b). The introduction of flute and electric piano dancing in ethnic style, A1 is a lyrical world of flowing and swaying, and B1 is a floating world with the wonderful matching of Corea's electric piano and Farell's soprano. The album is a superb crossover jazz that is reminiscent of "Return to Forever”.
A1: Outback
B1: Bleeding Orchid
