Mick,

Looks like Sandra and I are rowing in the same boat. While I know this is quite a step in a different direction from your usual playing filled with feeling on every note, I too don't get the groove/mix. Especially for the first 21 seconds into the tune, sounds to me like the drummer is not quite aware of the tune he is supposed to be playing, then he finds his way but only to loose it again at the 52 second mark etc. etc.. Unless I totally missed it (and man have I done that before) I am thinking there is either a style conflict between the lead instruments and the drummer or a timing issue.

Later,
