Great effort
The musicians were talented and their spirit was high. The one major shortcomings was the vocals. The primary singer was fair enough but the keyboardist couldn't carry a tune much less pay "tribute" to ABB. Same for the mouth harp player. It almost seemed like they flipped a coin to see who would sing a song. Their vocal renditions of "I'm No Angel" and "Hootchie Cootchie Man" were disappointing. If this band found a vocalist with as much talent as the instrument players, they would be a bona fide outfit. That being said, anyone who would get up at Variety and churn it out gets an A for effort. There's nothing like live music.
