"Elemental Journey" is just that. It contains "elements" on Sonny's skills I've never heard before. He has some "jazzy" influences in some of the tracks that are just marvelous. "Satch" and Eric's contributions to the songs they play on are tasteful as it gets. BRAVO SONNY! You've hit it on the nose once again!
