Tribal Tech is the fourth album by the jazz fusion band Tribal Tech, released in 1991.

Reception

DownBeat gave the album 4.5 stars.^[2] Reviewer Bill Milkowski wrote, "Henderson remains one of the strongest, most distinctive legato stylists among solid-body electric guitarists, ranking right up there with Allan Holdsworth. And his toe-curling licks on "Big Girl Blues" cut deep with Albert King intensity. This album confirms Henderson’s place at the top of the fusion heap, both as a player and as a composer".^[2]
