     Guitarist Phil Miller resides as one of the preeminent
     exponents of progressive rock, notwithstanding his storied
     legacy amid the much beloved British Canterbury rock scene.
     Otherwise, this 1991 release features the guitarist performing
     with some of his longtime musical associates: bassist Fred
     Baker, drummer Pip Pyle, and keyboardist Pete Lemer. Armed with
     MIDI and electric guitars, Miller successfully masters the
     digital revolution with a congenial and altogether zestful set,
     featuring Pyle's drum programming and the soloists' astute
     effects manipulations. Here, the band melds jazzy motifs with
     ethereal backdrops, whimsical themes, and memorably melodic
     choruses. Furthermore, Miller and Lemer employ MIDI-based
     trumpet and vibes patches, whereas Baker often trades
     harmonious notes with the primary soloists via his fluent
     attack and articulately executed chord voicings. Ultimately,
     Miller's penchant for constructing melodically tinged
     compositions among a series of cheery arrangements provides the
     winning formula. Recommended.

     Pete Lemer  -  Keyboards
     Phil Miller  -  Guitar, Producer, MIDI Guitar
     Pip Pyle  -  Drum Programming
     Fred "Sonny" Baker  -  Bass, Guitar (Bass)
