“Second and final album by Iliad is much more directed into Jazz Fusion, although not within your typical Fusion realms with Sandy Owen dominating the whole effort with his acoustic and electric pianos’ jazzy paces (along with sparse synthesizer) and contribution by guests on flute, cello, horn, oboe, while one Nancy Eastman provides some vocals.Some touches of straight Jazz and Funk throughout, lots of piano solos, some progressive vibes as well.Very dreamy and, trying to build a link with the first release, there is also a short piece named ”Canterbury”!” – Rateyourmusic review.
