This is fun, adult progressive rock from four veteran musicians. Sure, its stylistically reminiscent of the Bears’ and Belew’s (and the Beatles) previous work but this album is front-to-back catchy. The four of these guys on stage is a jaw-dropping experience with the amount of talent and energy. Maybe they’re not “hip” anymore, but this would have definitely gotten them laid in the 80s and probably still can. -Pete
