Bob James arranged all five tracks and plays piano, electric piano and synthesizer throughout. Rudy Van Gelder engineered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rhythm section shifts across the two sides. Steve Gadd plays the first two tracks, an unusually restrained performance from a drummer typically associated with more assertive playing. Jimmy Madison takes \"Knucklehead,\" an eight-minute funk workout with space for him to stretch. Side B gives way to Kenneth \"Spider Webb\" Rice on drums and Louis Johnson on bass, Johnson's sound is immediately recognisable, the low end looser and more percussive than Gary King's work on Side A.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The Sea Lion\" is Bob James's composition, strings and woodwinds arranged in the CTI style that Taylor had refined across dozens of albums. \"Moonstreams\" features Washington on soprano saxophone with Eric Gale's guitar and Sid Weinberg's English horn playing over the James arrangement. \"It Feels So Good\" at eight minutes, with Washington on tenor, was written by Ralph MacDonald and William Salter, who had also written \"Mister Magic.\" Jon Faddis, Randy Brecker, John Frosk and Bob Millikan fill out the brass section throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the 1979 Japanese Kudu CTI 1500 Series reissue (LAX 3213), distributed by King Record Co.
