ADDISON PROJECT – Mood Swings![]() Richard Addison used to be bass player with the renowned band, Mystery, but this is his first solo release under the monicker Addison Project. This CD takes a slightly sideways step from the more traditional based Mystery into the realms of progressive fusion. And with two drummers, three guitarists, two sax players, one violin player and two piano and synth players, anything is posssible. If you're looking for progressive jazz tunes or if you're looking for sculptured soundscapes (“Controlled Freedom”), then there's something here for you. The fusion numbers are firmly based in eighties mode, which is fine by me, but have an up to date crispness that elevates them way beyond some of the pretenders to the Mahavishnu throne. There are hints of Mr Addisons progressive past (if that makes any sense), although it's more jazz than rock, with hints of The Flock, but never losing sight of the melody makes for a powerful, confident and recommended release.
