Fusion's adventure story, the Voyage of Ritenour.
A light, thrilling instrumental album with a pleasant breeze blowing through it.
This fusion album, released in 1978 by guitarist Lee Ritenour, is a sonic adventure that feels like a journey across the ocean. The guitars are excellent, as are the sophisticated performances by Dave Grusin and others, and the melodic and comfortable sounds continue to be heard. The refreshing and clean sound continues to fascinate many listeners even today.
