Meaty, invigorating blues/ jazz infused rock. There is great interaction between the different saxophones, bass, and percussion in particular; other guitar, flute, and vocals flesh out the already strong performances. Tracks are hook laden and groove from first through last. Saxophones are very smooth on the opener “Feeling Numb”, really get busy on the following “More Money”, then heavier push on “Dream Girl” (Track #3) a swanky tune about a movie starlet. “Let Me In” (Track #6) is a soft ballad. Album finishes strong with sassy “Woooh Me” (Track #9) and groovy, rollicking “Come To Daddy” (Track #10). - Michael Loffelman
