RECORD EX (please, read above description)
SLEEVE STRONG VG+ (please, see pictures and read above description)
Composed, written, and arranged by Tony "T.S." McPhee, there are seven tracks
hovering from the around four- to seven-minute mark. The traditional "Natchez Burning,"
arranged by McPhee, fits in nicely with his originals while the longest track,
the six-minute-and-50-second "Light Is the Day," features the most innovation,
a Ginger Baker-style tribal rant by drummer Ken Pustelnik allowing McPhee
to lay down some muted slide work. As the tempo on the final track elevates along
with manic guitar runs by McPhee, the jamming creates a color separate
from the rest of the disc while still in the same style...(AllMusic)
