(Absord Japan)
Soft Focus is non-fusion, straight-ahead jazz. Bassist Rick Laird (Mahavishnu Orchestra) led studio sessions that included Tom Grant on piano, Ron Steen on drums and saxophonist Joe Henderson. Though Laird is playing electric bass, his lines could easily have come from a double bass. There are no efforts at great volume or distortion. His solo is an enjoyable experience full of easy melody. Fans of his Mahavishnu power would probably be surprised by his grace. "Soft Focus" also shows Laird's above-average compositional skills.
