First things first: the initial scan of the cd shown with the listing is the BACK insert of the cd. You have to look at the second customer image to see the front cover art. Now, down to brass tacks: you want to know whether this cd is worth buying, and what's it all about . . . This is melodic fusion keyboard jazz at it's supreme finest. You will probably best remember Jan Hammer from his incredible background music he wrote for the TV series: "Miami Vice." His style ... Read More

For those of you familiar with Jan Hammer, then you are accustomed to his trade mark "sound" like a Mellotron zoned-out on Somas (using the slider lever to slide between the notes) Well, he uses HIS sound on this album but not to the point of "Enough Already" as with some of his earlier solo releases. Really, he doesn't use "his sound" until the 9th track!

I really like Jan Hammer's work. I like his stuff with John McLaughlin, Al Dimeola, Neal Schon, and Jeff Beck. I like his solo stuff such as his music for Miami Vice and Beyond the Mind's Eye. But I could not stand this CD. I do not know what he was thinking when he wrote this music. I was so disappointed I sold the album - there was not a single song I liked to justify keeping it.

I'm a Jan Hammer fan, and this CD is a very good reason why I like him. In "Drive" he mixes different styles, and have added extra flavour in his tunes by having special appearances by the likes of Jeff Beck (Guitar), Michael Brecker( Saxophone ) and Stan Harrison (saxophone ) on some of the songs. The best songs are the calypso influensed "Island Dreamer" and Smooth jazz oriented "Lucky Jane". I'd give this CD 5 stars if the lead motive "Drive" was a little bit better..but you can't have it all ... Read More

An excellent CD. I got hooked on Jan Hammer's music from the video "Beyond the Mind's Eye". I bought this CD when it first came out. I was not disappointed and it still sounds good. A timeless piece of work.
