Guitarist Wayne Krantz's hardness and intensity serve him well on
Signals -- a respectable fusion date uniting him with drummer
Dennis Chambers, keyboardist
Jim Beard and bassist
Hiram Bullock, among others. When
Krantz lets loose and digs into such complex yet accessible jazz-rock as "Faith in the Process," "Don't Tell Me" and "Alliance," the listener can focus on the depth of his playing. Guitarist
Leni Stern joins
Krantz on the reflective "As Is." ~ Alex Henderson, All Music Guide
