Worth seeing live! They have punchier sound than on video. No live strings
but 3 horns, 2 trumpet and sax, one trumpeter doubling 2nd keys. 2 guitars,
bass, drums, percussion and 1st keyboard. Some of the tunes seem to be
medley'd and sound tighter than the videos.

The downside, most tunes based on a simple figure varied up and rearranged
to the n'th degree which sounds good live and in context but not so much
distinctly memorable. I suppose if you lose the vocals from some Stevie
Wonder or Steely Dan tunes there's a similar result.

Good dynamic range, like a funky Gentle Giant with the original Miami Sound
Machine rhythm feel.
