Miracle Mile (Wayne Horvitz album)

The Allmusic review awarded the album 3 stars, noting that Miracle Mile featured virtually none of the aggression or fast tempos Horvitz displayed as a member of John Zorn's band Naked City in this era. In contrast, Miracle Mile emphasized subtle compositions that represented a "cross-pollination of jazz, ambient, groove, and modern chamber music".[2]
