I just recently got hold of that CD--really should have moved
sooner when it came out!--and it's pretty solid stuff isn't it? I really
quite like it. Less like the CYM clonery of the first Krel CD and much
more like Spacehead only with the spirit of fun and excitement still
left. I've seen Spacehead manage that but not as often as I've seen them
play sadly, they can get a bit leaden. On the other hand, Dibs was
better with HW than I've ever seen him solo, so maybe Spacehead can hope
for a shot in the vein... Yours,
Jon
