Blues
More dependable than a Swiss train, the band regales club audiences back home in Sacramento and San Francisco with old favorites and new titles. The shows catch fire when Baty refashions countrified Jimmy Bryant licks on his showcase "Wildcattin'" and pays homage to blues-jazzman Tiny Grimes here and there. Yet things drag considerably when the band tries to transport the audience to Chicago with a long version of Buddy Guy's "Ten Years Ago." Further, Estrin's vocals are full of unintentional affectation, the new bass player's fingers lack the surety of the man he replaced, and Baty bores with his Guy mannerisms.

This is a high quality live album with great sound and energy. It doesn't matter what track you listen to, the group displays a high threshold of talent. No matter what you call their music, or how you label them specifically, the fact is, these guys are cookin! They have a big bass sound here (not taking anything away from anyone else in the group) for whatever reason (mix, indivdual talent, etc.) complimenting the music without getting lost in the background as the bass in most music. Instead of the bass being "featured", from time to time, it's there on every track. You can't help but move, or boogie listening to this album and the only way to describe them here is that they are HOT!
