IF yes, then Chicago and BS&T also ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

It's "bloody" time to do it! IF were a most wonderful Jazz-Rock outfit, often mentioned but never really acted on. Number 4 is very good, number 3 is to start with though, IMO.
Chicago, BS&T are not such a priority in comparison.

"Nuclear Blues" is an amazing BST's pure jazz with bits of rock album...... I think there's more to BST than Spinning Wheel... But I can't make an opinion to that statement yet.
I still can't find any IF... my father says he has some tapes from them but I just couldn't see them  ... I'll make a more profound search.------------- Jesus Gabriel |

I agree with Stephen. If are certainly more of a priority than either Chicago or BS&T (who I would put in PR, I think). IF could fit fine in jazz rock, at least IMO. Great band, as well, and certainly well worth checking out (i have the first two albums).
