Factory Sealed Brand New Copy.

Mouzon, known for his diverse musical collaborations, assembled an impressive band for this recording. The lineup includes luminaries like Herbie Hancock, Lee Ritenour, and the great Freddie Hubbard. The tracks are arresting, with slick grooves and jazz-licked instrumental disco. Notably, the album features the frantic drum solo of Space Invaders, reminiscent of Billy Cobham’s style, accompanied by cosmic synths and Mouzon’s robotic vocals. The closing title cut, featuring Hubbard’s flugelhorn solo, delivers a real bang in this 14-minute disco jam. While Hancock’s presence is significant, “By All Means” undoubtedly showcases Mouzon’s finest hour as a leader (Jazz Journal)
