Fantasy (Ramsey Lewis album)

Fantasy is a studio album by American jazz pianist Ramsey Lewis, released in 1985 on Columbia Records.

[2] Chris Albertson of Stereo Review wrote: "With a little help from Maurice White, his former drummer who hit pop gold with Earth, Wind & Fire, the fifty-year-old pianist has armed himself with synthesizers and come up with a set of sounds that will have a much younger generation gyrating and bopping in the strobe lights.

"[4] Peter Sleight of the Sun Sentinel stated: "Fantasy, by keyboardist Ramsey Lewis, could be found in any department of the music store.

Sleight added: "It succeeds because Lewis has found the secret to electronic instruments: They must be used judiciously, and for the purpose to which they are best suited.

To avoid the one-note, one-rhythm pounding that flaws most android music, Lewis creates many layers of electronic tracks.
