5.0 out of 5 stars spectrum it's called, spectrum it is, 9 May 2003
By Savage Rabbit "pmphinehas" (Fuerteventura, Spain) - See all my reviews
From the opening, high-energy Quadrant right through to the totally laid back Red Baron, this is an album that must be listened to as a whole. It slowly changes from the one thing to the other, never failing to hit the right spot.
The openers to most of the tracks are right there too with some spine-tingling mood changes.
Let Spectrum lift you up into the clouds and bring you back with the gentleness of a feather.
Billy Cobham is simply brilliant, backing the whole thing up with his full range of abilities - drumming and composing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blend of battlers, 21 Nov 2008
By Francis Rottenburg "francisro" (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have had this album since vinyl and it is probably in my favorite ten or so. From memory Tommy Bolin is on guitar and Jan Hammer on keyboards. As a previous reviewer mentioned it should be listened to as a whole. There are however some searing exchanges that stand out between Hammer and Bolin with the opening track leaving me transfixed. The thing I like particularly about it is that even when dueling, the keyboard and guitar allow each other space and don't simply try to play faster. They slide gloriously from phrase to phrase and Bolin's chord work is stunning. The mood changes are lovely and Cobham's drumming both leads and cements the entire work together. I suspect they enjoyed making this album hugely and would pay again for the out takes....

4.0 out of 5 stars Great jazz-rock-funk album, 10 April 2001
From abstract percussion to heavy funk, this album is great. Of course, Cobham is a technically amazing drummer, but the tunes and grooves are up there too. You probably even know one of them already: Massive Attack sampled a bass line for their own "Blue Lines" album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Jazz Fusion Album Ever
This album still sounds as fresh today as it did 30 years ago when i had it on vinyl. Tommy Bolin's guitar is inspired as is Jan's keyboards. Read more
