4 stars Passport is a very good fusion band, having VERY catchy sax melodies and rhythms. The sound here is quite fresh. Most of the songs have a pleasant sophisticated pop style, which is very addictive and accessible: The "Garden of Eden" track sometimes sound a bit like the Pacific Eardrum band. The impressive rhythmic sax on "Dreamware" sounds a bit like the one from the Solution band. The overall comparison with Solution is valid, despite Passport has electric guitars, and they seem to use more modern keyboards, producing more atmospheric textures here. I also find the lead vocals on Passport better than on Solution. This album is, like the Solution's pieces, a bit sentimental, as reveals the "Good Earth smile" track. This record has also just a bit the Spyro Gyra style, although Spyro Gyra is more nervous and use more vintage keyboards.
