This smooth, mostly instrumental set of jazz fusion cuts from the ex-basketball star turned bass guitar virtuoso Wayman Tisdale features high-quality easy listening music like the relaxed, funky title track and "Off Into It," as well as a spirited cover of McFadden & Whitehead's "Ain't No Stopping Us Now." The bassist also contributes vocals on the gospel-inflected, serene "Glory Glory."
