This studio-only band consisted of major names of the Scandanavian and Polish jazz scenes, along with superstar drummer Tony Williams, who plays superbly here. But they all do!
“Pop Workshop were an all-star fusion band that included Janne Schaffer, Mads Vinding, Tony Williams, and Polish luminaries associated with Michal Urbaniak (and where two of these compositions will end up on his Fusion III album a year later).
Strong overtones of Mahavishnu Orchestra era fusion and Herbie Hancock's Headhunters funk - with some Coltrane-ish sax. A nice mix of fusion/jazz/funk and not too far removed from another Swedish based international jazz rock ensemble: Ablution (minus the Santana influence perhaps).
For those that like the early 70s jazz fusion sound, this album will most certainly be well received.” - rym
