Jason Miles' Mr. X showcases the keyboardists knack for mildly funky, laid-back fusion. Working with fusion stars like Will Lee, Marcus Miller, Ricardo Silviera and Steve Ferrone, Miles creates an album that is pleasant, but never gripping. It's music that is well-suited for playing in the background of an upscale party. ~ Leo Stanley
