I would have bought this album just for Heart Of Steel. I just love Irma Thomas’s vocals.
I think Galactic would be a great band to see live. If they get down my way they’re on my list.
The album, well its interesting; not particularly original, but a good go at a difficult mix of styles.
I don’t like it all, but what I do like, I like a lot.
4 out of 5 from me purely on the basis that I bought it and I cant say that about any other album features so far.
Single spur balanced Mains. Self built music server with 3 seperate linear PSU, Intel i5, 16 GB RAM no hard drive (various Linux OS). Benchmark Dac2 HGC, single ended XLR interconnects/Belkin cable. Exposure 21RC Pre, Super 18 Power (recap & modified). Modded World Audio HD83 HP amp. Hand built Monitors with external crossovers , Volt 250 bass & ABR, Scanspeak 13M8621 Mid & Scanspeak D2905/9300 Hi. HD595 & Beyer 880 (600 ohm) cans.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.
