[Heeplist] [NHC] Some Great New Music

[Bob Winward]

My point is made!  Most will not like the new DP because it does not sound
like classic DP. I agree, but what I do hear, is very talented guitar work,
screaming loud keyboards and a drummer who is probably best in the world.
One of the songs starts out with a drum/guitar interlude that is incredible
and reminds me of Box/Kerslake.

Some will never accept Morse
