First Light continues a long line of excellent releases by the 32 Jazz label and Pat Martino. While neither Joyous Lake or Starbright merit the designation of "classic," the combination of both recordings on one budget-priced CD make two-fer an essential fusion recording. [First Light was reissued by Savoy Jazz in 2003.]~ Robert Taylor
