| Notes | In 1985, after Hughes-Thrall (with Glenn Hughes on vocals) didn't succeed as expected, guitarist Pat Thrall (ex-Pat Travers Band) performed a one-off live concert together with his ex-Automatic Man pal Michael Shrieve (formerly with Santana) and Swedish bass player extraordinaire Jonas Hellborg (playing with the Mahavishnu Orchestra at the time). Whether they were getting ready to record an album or just gigging for fun, they played a blistering set at Nefertiti that included some blues, a couple of funk/vocal tunes, extended bass and drum solos, but mostly red hot instrumental rock/fusion. Thrall is a superb guitar player whose talents were never fully utilized with Pat Travers, but here he delivers an absolutely jaw dropping performance with a guitar tone that will take your head off. And the Hellborg/Shrieve rhythm section (which teamed up again in 1996 on the landmark "Two Doors" CD with Shawn Lane) is, not surprisingly, absolutely killer. This is a very rare show that I have never seen on anyone's list. It needs to be heard by all fans of heavy instrumental rock/fusion so I am sharing it here. I am so thankful that this was captured in the first place so thanks to the taper - whoever you are. |
