Lots of experimentation with everything from shred metal to jazz. Have to be in the right mood to listen to this one because of the variety of styles. However, one thing this album does prove is that Lanny is one talented guitarist. James Christian (ex-House of Lords) appears as guest vocalist on a couple of songs, but the majority of this disc is instrumental. "All The Things You Are" also appears on Ken Tamplinv's "Tamplin and Friends."
