As an original member of both Joe Zawinul's Zawinul Syndicate and Ramsey Lewis's Urban Knights, bassist Victor Bailey has played both contemporary jazz with a rock edge and R&B-laced jazz. On this nine-track disc, he straddles both worlds quite effectively. Besides a totally out-of-place and somewhat self-indulgent vocal piece titled "Where's Paco," this is a solid program of post-fusion music.
The Parliament/Funkadelic medley of "(Not Just) Knee Deep" and "One Nation Under a Groove," and the catchy "Rope-a-Dope" are great examples of progressive 21st-century jazz-funk, while guitarist Dean Brown, and especially keyboardist Jim Beard--who's a revelation throughout the proceedings--shine brightly in blistering solos that emphasize the rock in jazz-rock fusion. Underrated reedman Bennie Maupin also appears on two tracks. He plays the kind of lines on his bass clarinet that he did with Herbie Hancock's Headhunters in the '70's on a hot tune he wrote called "Steamy," switching to tenor sax on the title track, which closes the album. Despite the firepower of his guests, Bailey's bass isn't overshadowed at all. --Mark Ruffin

Major find here........super funny, high intellect w/o being vulgar............................................2007-02-07
We first saw Kevin Meaney while looking for something to do after moving to Raleigh, N.C.
A lot of the routines done on this c.d. were part of the act we saw. We were laughing so hard, I could barely catch my breath. At first, the couple we were with, our only friends since we had just moved, were sort of surprised at how real our gut laughs were, then they caught the wave.......our table was shaking, and the tears were rolling down our eyes......Kevin Meaney was that funny.
Coming from an Irish Catholic(not practicing now)family of Eleven......I could really relate. Haven't heard a thing from him in a while, but every now and then I check..........wish he would do something else......now, more than ever, I could use a freakin' laugh.
Kebmo.........comeback!!!
Blessings,
becca
