The overall quality of the above musicians is rather exceptional. (I invite you to google some of the names.)
Rudy Romero was initially part of a promising San Diego band called Hard Times. After this band broke up, Romero briefly joined a band called New Phoenix. He eventually embarked on a solo career, signing with Tumbleweed Records. Lee Kiefer, a former singer for Hard Times, produced this record. Although this album had lavish production values, the label did little to promote it. Several of the songs have been critically acclaimed.
INTERESTING TIDBIT: Although his name does not appear in the credits, it has been claimed that ex-Beatle George Harrison performed (guitar) on four of the tracks!!! This claim was made by former Tumbleweed artist Robb Kunkle, in an interview with Patrick "The Lama" Lundborg.
