Wandering Heart has the driving feel of horse ride on the Mongolian steppes. A catchy melody is held aloft by a bubbling rhythm section. The tune dips and broadens for a lyrical alto solo by Richard Underhill, then breaks into a repetitive line featuring great blowing by Kelly Jefferson on tenor sax. The music reaches a climax, the band breaks camp, ride out back out onto the plain and the journey ends with the familiar repeating hook.
