Bar-band rock crossed with twisty prog/jazz writing. Deliciously blazing and bluesy, even. Definite rock energy here; a particular treat is the harmonica, played in a hybrid of blues and free jazz to give the session that dusty backroads-bar sound. Strong beats, mid/fast tempos, loud rock blaring (even though it's sax and harmonica leading the melody), twisty odd time signatures, and some wild-ass solos (1,12). Liebig fuzzes out his bass for some guitar-hero antics here and there. Loads of instrumental fun; play it all. FCC clean. 1- Mid/fast with some crazy harmonica; 6/8 time 2- Rockin' bass intro, into driving midtempo rock 3- Rolling, *very* vaguely Indian feel under boppin' sax. Mid/fast. 4- Funky but in odd time (10/8?), kinda prog/blues/rock. Cool! 5- Fast; tricky pinpoint dancing feel. Still rocks, though. 6- Slow, spare, disjoint 7- Slowish, w/blazing gut-punching sax solo 8- Halting, Eastern-meditation feel, in a brash way 9- Slowish country loping 10- Mid/fast, very strong beat 11- Midtempo "crime jazz," fun and bouncy 12- Strong bluesy feel, mid/fast and loud, *crazy* soloing 13- Short free-jazzy statement, energetic | ||
