Reviewed 2017-03-30
Label: B&B Records
Genre: Jazz

Review: fusion funk jazz jam with stellar creative scat singer. Pater uses her voice as an additional instrument that soars above the brew, sometimes multi-tracking. The band has a 3 saxophone attack. The group rarely lets up on intensity, even when the pace slows.

FCCs: none
If You Like: Return To Forever, Bernie Worrell, Headhunters (Herbie Hancock)
Favorite Tracks: (1) Curse Of The Locusts (3) Sand Dunes (6) The Princess (11) Ritual
