While still deeply into the R&B/funk thing, Clarke's Time
Exposure is a cut or two above its immediate neighbors in
quality, thanks mostly to some superior tunesmithing on
Clarke's part. The title track is the prize of the set and one
of the best funk numbers of Clarke's career, an ingratiating
fusion of a riff and a tune that won't quit the memory, set to
a vigorous groove and hammered out by rock guitarist Jeff Beck.
Even the obviously radio-minded ballad "Heaven Sent You" (a
number 21 R&B hit) is a better-than-average bit of R&B writing
ù and here and elsewhere, Clarke wisely leaves the lead vocals
mostly to others. The sheer speed and power of Clarke's
electric and piccolo bass work is astonishing throughout the
album, and the CD as a whole has a techno sound and edge
reflecting a period of time just before analog synthesizers
were swept away by digital instruments. Ernie Watts and
perennial coconspirator George Duke make cameo appearances on
one track apiece. - Richard S. Ginell
