A monster drummer, but 95% of the bands and projects he's in, i've just never been able to get into.This is just more of the same old safe uninspiring fusion stuff imo.
Saw both shows Saturday night, the second set was better than the first, and the first set kicked my ass! Awesome band. Phillips is so great, he and Weingart were really in tune to each other. Amazing show.
This would be dream show for me. Love Simon but the real draw for me would be Andy Timmons. Love his CDs and he is on my bucket list to see live
He made great recordings for Mike Oldfield, Jeff Beck, Jack Bruce, and Roger Glover.Originally Posted by Watanabe

I blame Wynton, what was the question?

"Henry Cow always wanted to push itself, so sometimes we would write music that we couldn't actually play – I found that very encouraging." - Lindsay Cooper, 1998
"I have nothing to do with Endless River. Phew! This is not rocket science people, get a grip." - Roger Waters, 2014
"I'm a collector. And I've always just seemed to collect personalities." - David Bowie, 1973
Ditto to that!
I still remember the first time I saw Phillips, it was actually with Pete Townshend's band solo band, and I was amazed how he utilized every single piece of his drum kit, and not just to be showy. I don't own much of his work, but I do plan of rectifying that.
The more I listen to this the better it sounds. Great cd.
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF STUPID PEOPLE IN LARGE GROUPS!
Seriously bummed about this.
Music isn't about chops, or even about talent - it's about sound and the way that sound communicates to people. Mike Keneally
Count me as a fan of the new album.....good stuff. At times reminds me of a later-period Weather Report...but maybe that's just me.
