I have been checking Ed’s work since the early 2000s and its taken a while but he has produce a release that really lives up to his potential. Perpetual Gateways is a solid, very coherent, in the pocket english language work from EM. Perhaps his best to date – top shelf production, great writing/compositions, stellar vocals, and generously supported by key session players like Patrice Rushen, Cecil McBee, and Hubert Laws .
