High energy funk-soul classic jazzified with New Orleans vibe and prog-fusion guitar. It's the first track released from Tobin Mueller's new album, Prestidigitation. The recording features one of today's top contemporary guitarists, Paul Nelson. This fresh arrangement creates a sense of reckless abandonment, led by David Dejesus' baritone sax and Mueller's distorted Wurlitzer. Newcomer Isaiah Schmidt's drumming is spectacular.
