On these times, his auspicious debut on ESC Records, three-time Grammy-nominated guitarist Mike Stern --one of the true guitar greats of his generation -- places his signature fluid and lyrical lines into the fabric of highly appealing vocal and instrumental numbers that strike a splendid balance between memorable melodies and burning fusillades. While the vocal presence is significant on these times, there is also considerable stretching instrumentally by Stern and company – world class soloists all. Stern’s 12th release as a leader stands as one of the best of his career.
