Zanibar has a wonderful tropical feel throughout most of the disc. This isn't your typical island dance music but an amazing fun sound with its roots in folk. The storytelling is just superb.
Michael is backed up dutifully by Bob Doidge, Ed Roth, Bill Dillon, Brian Griffith and others. The background vocals by Ian Thomas, Dave Rave, and Jude Johnson are a real treat as well.

Your Number is a fabulous musical voyage featuring different elements such as jazz, pop, oriental sounds, psychedelic passages, and synthesizers.The songwriting is top notch here as well.
