Yet another amazing find on Southern Star records, I had never even heard of this label before but somehow they keep popping up in different places, and both were really great, this particular piece is superior to Ron Anderson probably, not as strong lyrically or songwriting but I enjoy the modal jazz funk rhodes workouts on here immensely. Along the lines of an Austin Jazz funk version of Aposento Alto, or maybe more like the infamous FABLE records out of Austin, with the likes of 47 times its own weight, starcrost, and steamheat. Its definitely in that genre anyway, the southern jazz funk dash of latin dash of prog lots of ELECTRIC KEYS and vocals, cool breezey late 70s AOR boat shoes type vocals, but anyway I was amazed to see that I couldn't find this anywhere on the blogdom yet, I didn't look long but I don't think its available anyway, so here is another first for you guys. Enjoy. (lots more finds of late, many many goodies, look for an ebay auction soon...)
