This brings me to the issue of harmony: due to the lack of a 'chordal' instrument like piano (with the exception of 'Blue') or guitar, you could call this a 'chord-less' band. And the alto and voice blend beautifully well. But without question, the vocal star here is the incomparable Andy Bey his rich baritone has the slightest vibrato, and when he goes into his upper register, it's even more impassioned. The earthiness of the music here is enhanced by many vocals, a surprising number of them provided by Bartz 'Blue' features him in his 'debut as blues pianist and as a blues singer'.
