4 stars What an honour and privilege for me to be the first reviewer for the new MIKE KENEALLY album!Yes,the master is back this year with a brand new album full of musical goodies in the pure tradition od the previous MK 's albums!What brings new this album is.the fact that the ensemble of the album seems to be more compact and the songs are more defined!The orchestration is more varied and dense because it includes additional musicians on chords and other classical instruments!Of course,this is music for open minded persons and for those who like to escape from musical limits and boundaries!MIKE's music is an expressiom of free thinking and parmanent search for new ways of musical expressions!It's obvious that ZAPPA's spirit is present and actual in Mike's compositions and the very nice voice of maestro KENEALLY fits perfectly with the songs,that always have their freshness and spontaneity!This man has so many brilliant ideas and all his albums are full of surprises,very enjoyable surprises,it never brings to boredom the listener-NO WAY!!The orchestration is very rich and dense ,please just take a look at the impressive line up for this new and very inspired MIKE KENEALLY new album!Monster drummer MARCO MINNEMAN plus the spectacular ace on drums JOE TRAVERS are on duty together with the musical brother of MIKE,BRYAN BELLER,and...SURPRISE..we find a part of the METROPOL ORKESTAR frum Holland,led by the brilliant CO DE KLOET as musical director,a very open minded and brilliant musician,responsable for the classical orchestral album of MIKE and TERRI BOZZIO plus STEVE VAI'S musical extravaganzas on the classical orchestral area!So,be prepared for exploring new musical territories,for being a part to a new journey in the world od unexpected sounds with this new sincere and inspired MIKE KENEALLY album,you won't be dissapointed at all!Check the SPECIAL EDITION with bonus cd,it's EXCELLENT! 4,5 STARS to a musical genius!
