Great 80s jazz-funk album of Saxofonist Gary Bartz on Arists records. This album is produced by James Mtume and Reggie Lucas of Mtume. The sound of this album is typical Mtume for these years. Think of Phyllis Hyman and 'Search Of the Rainbow' especially when Tawatha sing on 'Keep Goin' On', great tune by the way. Another great track is 'Give Me Your Best) Shot!'
