Wow ... thanks for reminding me just how good Jon Cleary's band is. Definitely worth catching next time they're in the UK.

Have not heard this for a long time my love of Deep purple many years ago
got me into what Tommy Bolin had done prior to joining them and so led me to
this album and a lot of the 70s fusion stuff.

If you get bored with the long intro the bass kicks in about 3.00...bassline sampled/copied
by massive attack of course.

For me, Tommy Bolin's best stuff was his solo work, such as his album "Teaser" - plus what he did with The James Gang (especially the beautiful "Alexis").

After The Brecker Brothers' "East River", this is one of my favourite 'rock-funk-groove' numbers.
