Strategem was an unexpected failure, delivered exactly at the moment when Big Head Todd & the Monsters could have broken into the mainstream. With its follow-up, Beautiful World, the group regained its musical strengths. The Monsters jam with an expert grace throughout the record, particularly with guests John Lee Hooker and Bernie Worrell, and producer Jerry Harrison helps keep things focused.
