Keith,
Thank you very much! The CD showed up yesterday and hasn't left the player. So many artists come to mind while listening. I hear snippets of Rush, Steely Dan, Jethro Tull, Yes and probably others that I can't immediately put a finger on. Definitely a great listen. I love the sax and flute parts. They really work well in the songs.
Thanks again for your generosity and willingness to share.
Rush and Yes were 2 of my favorites growing up. Steely Dan still is. Jethro Tull was a huge influence on bass/flute player. Even named his son Ian.
I wish that I heard steely dan in the music, but those guys are truly on another planet composing and playing wise. Not to mention Donalds cool, cool vocals and lyrics.
I saw them Last year and was blown away, except for becker's lead playing which never seemed to go anywhere. The other guitarist they had was terrific.
13 people on stage didn't seem to muck any of it up either!
