Genre: Jazz fusion/ Modern jazz
Places I remember: JB Hi Fi (Palmerston North)
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Bobbin
Gear costume: Oops
Active compensatory factors: For a while there, I profited a lot from JB Hi Fi's sale bins - mainly when CDs had begun waning in popularity and vinyl was starting to make a comeback in their shops. They off loaded quite a few Ode recordings of people like Frank Gibson, Brian Smith, and this one by Powerband.

They recorded this in 1989-1990 and it's influenced by the kind of jazz moves being made at the time by bands like Yellow Jackets and Spirogyra.
This album holds its head up high amidst that company thanks to stellar NZ musicians like Martin Winch on guitar and Kenny Pearson on bass.
Where do they all belong? More NZ jazz fusion coming (eventually).
