Gambale and the gang tear it up! Stu Hamm is Levinesque-thundering, Stanley Clarke-kicking bass.
Vital Information's Steve Smith's drumming keeps right up when it gets wild and hold things together during spacy chordal splurges.
These pros got pumped watching old Mahavishnu Orchestra videos and cranked up the old fusion fires.
Gambale surprised me on this one.
So many of his other releases exhibit more of that bouncy jazz with clean, fast, sweep picking and an obvious structured disciplined approach.
This album shows he can get mean, edgy, overdriven, and raw, and be a downright awesome riff monster.
Hamm is an earthquake, Smith a splinter-slingin' tornado.
