Wasn't a big Utopia fan back when Todd went "fusion" in the 70s. But this new Space Force band sounds like he understands the genre now(almost 50 years later!). And Steve Vai is still a 10-fingered wizard. Sounds like he has twice that many digits! Anyone remember Vai's role in the great "guitar showdown" in the "Crossroads" movie?

@StringOfPerils. I, too, am a huge fan of Danny O'Keefe. Thought he was a bit underappreciared back when singer-songwriters ruled the roost. My all-time fave number by him is "Mad Ruth/The Babe" from the "Breezy Stories" album. Still moves me even today, 50 years later.

That entire LP is a 70s high point in the singer-songwriter arena, for sure. Roger Kellaway on piano. C'mon! I like the American Roulette album a lot too. O'Keefe was one of those artists just too good for the marketplace to appreciate I guess...plus changing tastes/trends...

Assuming neither Lil Green nor Ma Rainey sang it, Jorma's probably the first I heard the tune, too. Odd that I "heard" the females, though, while the Jelly Roll was playing.
