ALBUM REVIEW
3rd and last part of the "Go" album trilogy by Japanese percussionist / composer Stomu Yamash`ta, recorded by an international group of musicians, many of which are celebrated and renowned by their own merits. The participants include guitarist Al Di Meola, drummer Michael Shrieve, keyboardist Klaus Schulze and many more. The music is an eclectic mixture of ambient, Jazz, Pop, Rock, Funk and even disco, moving freely and smoothly from one genre to another in perfect harmony and somehow making perfect sense. In retrospect it becomes obvious that Yamash`ta was a visionary well ahead of his time, predicting a total meltdown of musical genres into a new amalgam. One thing is sure, it does sound today as good as it did at the time of the recording, which already proves its intrinsic musical values. Warmly recommended! (Jazzis - Rate Your Music)
