Two killer albums!! Just that simple, even if they've been released a few years ago. It's a shame this band is almost completely unknown in our country. Southern rock fans and Allman Brothers Band fans would sure enjoy these albums. Anyway, let's go back to the music. Ice Breaker ('95) : When you listen to the first songs of this album, you clearly understand the Allman Brothers Band has been a huge influence on this band (such as the twin guitar harmonies). The two guitar players interact real well and show us such a great melodic work on their solos (listen to "Sweet Mary Kane", "Bad girl", "Cry for love"et "Lake Ontario twilight" and you know what I mean) Just What The Doctor Ordered ('98) : This album is a bit more rock than the other one, and it has the same ingredients, vocal harmonies (the "You take me high" 's intro is a killer vocal harmony ala Eagles), the twin guitar harmonies, the Dickey Betts's atmosphere (Fade away" 's intro), the slide guitar work which reminds me of the great Warren haynes '"Fade away", "The child I used to be").
