Whenever an album contains intros that stretch over the three-minute mark, it's a safe bet that the record can't be called "urgent," and so is the case with Singularity, Robby Krieger's first album in a decade.

Whenever an album contains intros that stretch over the three-minute mark, it's a safe bet that the record can't be called "urgent," and so is the case with Singularity, Robby Krieger's first album in a decade. Like Cinematix before it, Singularity is a jazz fusion session in an old-fashioned sense, relying on Rhodes keyboards and lite funk grooves, sounding a bit like a cross between Jeff Beck's Blow by Blow and Steely Dan's Aja, graced with a little bit of Boz Scaggs' cool touch and a lot of Krieger's winding single-note lines.
