It would be nicer if you could hear the drums and not just the bass!Rodger Colemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14447735420151521491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34883285.post-22028542057076772012011-09-14T08:30:30.113-05:002011-09-14T08:30:30.113-05:00Yeah, I have to agree with you on this one--it'...Yeah, I have to agree with you on this one--it's lackluster, and the plodding bass (a local addition, maybe?) helps ruin it for me. "Sophisticated Lady" is by far the most interesting thing here, and that just barely. The arrangement is pretty close to what they were rehearsing on "Dance of the Living Image," but it doesn't help that you can hardly hear the drums, and the bass is overdone. Gilmore's solo is not as off as you say, though---it's got some nice lyrical parts. But it's not transcendent, which you can certainly say for 99.9% of his solos.Samhttp://www.archive.org/search.php?query=creator:%22Rodger+Coleman+and+Sam+Byrd%22noreply@blogger.com
