Great memories, Steve.
It's my favorite of his three first ones. Jay Oliver's sound would eventually lose its appeal to me, but man, did I spin that CD until it lost its mirror shine!

Good memories - fun music! Dave's first ever solo performance at Catalinas for that recording. John P on bass - killing dates! We lived up the street from the club! What a time! Houseofdrumming would be created shortly after.
Cheers!
The last DW's album I bought, I liked it, specially "Where's Tom", "Dis' Place This", "Hard-Wired", and "Just An Illusion", James Genus on bass on some songs or the whole album ? Maybe Antony Jackson plays on that one too.
I always loved Tavaglione's sound, rare tenor player playing fusion without Mike Brecker's sound.
Jeff Beal on one song too ?
His "Three Graces" is something else.

Afrique is my favorite tune on there - a great example of the old 6/8 4/4 with the addition of 3/4 as well without sounding too mathy. Anthony Jackson and Dave play the coolest groove on the outro too.
Yeah Jeff Beal on "Where's Tom" I think.
Rodge you know I Love me some Three Graces!

The opening solo is really awesome, specially after the latin bit.

Are the toms panned backwards for you on that? The right side FT is panned left for me unless my setup is wrong.
The buzz control and phrasing is untouchable - Love that stuff.

Dave came kind of late in the singles between hand and foot's "game", but boy, he owns that shit now.
