Passages is regarded as Gambale's best overall album. Strong songs and strong performances by the whole all-star lineup. Otmaro Ruiz, the sensational keyboardist from Caracas, Venezuela is a perfect match for Gambale. The rhythm section is the firepower of Alphonso Johnson ( bass ), and Walfredo Reyes Jr. ( drums ). A classic album with classic songs like "Passages", "Little Charmer" and "6.8 Shaker".
