I first heard them when I saw them live at Rosfest 2004. Shame on ME for not hearing them before!

On each release prior to the latest, they had a couple of King's X sounding songs, which immediately caught my ear.

First two CD's (Salem Hill and Different Worlds) are in the Kansas vein, but has some mature stuff on it. Then Catatonia, Robbery of Murder, Not Everybody's Gold, and the live Puppet Show. Robbery and Catatonia are some fans' favorites.

The last two, Be and Mimi's Magic Moment (my avatar by the way), are in my top records ever. They're that good.

Moses is also a huge fan and can provide insight.

I've played all of Be on the show, and all of Mimi at some point. I'll most likely do a full show in May or June.

Carl Groves (the main Hillion) has a great solo CD, Branch Upon the Ground (played that also and has since been added to the Moon).
