For older fans Introduction will put a massive smile accross your face. eight years ago, Mr. Fingers briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “On a Corner Called Jazz”. While no new Mr. Fingers album is in sight, the artist has been road testing new songs during 1992 tour in Africa. If I may, I suggest “Closer”. That one song is amazing!
On a Corner Called Jazz is a nice, innocuous song, and much better than anything Mr. Fingers released so far. Vocal harmonies in this track are great and song structure is just right. Empty one is one of the better boring ones. Survivor is one of the coolest songs Mr. Fingers has ever recorded. Some of the arrangements found on Introduction are surprisingly edgy. Although I prefer the faster paced music, I think Dead End Alley is my favorite song on Introduction. Waves Against the Shore is a striking and quite long song. Alright is a good listen every once in a while. This track is almost perfect, instrumentals and vocals combine awesomely. U.S.S.R. is the funkiest number on the album. Uniform Variations catches attention immediately, So much energy, so exciting a sound.
