I’ve been away much lately due to school and just plain old life but the music just keeps rockin’ on. For those not in the know, I’m a HUGE Allan Holdsworth and Tony Williams fan. So for me, Believe It, by the Tony Williams’ Life Time Band is like a dream come true of collaborations. With the aforementioned Williams and Holdsworth on drums and guitar, Believe It also show cases some great piano work by Alan Pasqua and Tony Newton tying things down and grooving on bass. Believe It shows what good fusion was really all about and that it was more than technology and gadgets. Believe It is charged with great song writing and playing. Proto-Cosmos, written by Pasqua, is one the gems of Believe It, which has a hard hitting rhythm which repeats itself through out. Red Alert sounds just like that. The players are well matched to one another and it’s not a chop-for-the-sake-of-chops fest. Believe It will make you a true believer of fusion. Highly recommended.
