Game Notes:
- M's first game of T&E; K's second
- The game ended early but with not enough time for a second game so we played a quick game of Dominion without M who acted responsibly and went home. We enjoyed the pretzel sticks he left behind. Thank you M!
- G had whipped up a custom set of 10 cards all from the Dark Ages expansion.
- Name of the deck: Trash Ahoy and it features Rats, Market Square, Death Cart and other combo friendly cards
- Score: G 40 K 36 W 29
- Xmas game day proposed as Dec 27, 3 - 11pm possibly at Sc's, possibly involving Uber
Music Notes:
M was strangely unfamiliar with the best jazz album of 1974 (Billboard). Bringing the synthesizer to the forefront with a rock solid fast-paced funky groove providing finger tapping goodness, this album represented a turning point for HH and for jazz fusion by effectively spearheading jazz-funk.
Enjoyed in Si's absence. Fresh beats from some what would be their last album.
Soul/Funk grooves from some contemporary masters

Amazingly, this was his 18th and highest charting album. Not hard to see why, strong musicianship with some naughty lyrics. Check out the intro to this amazing track: Uncle Remus for proof of some of the beautiful songwriting on display. Or how about the title track, featuring Jack Bruce? It's an amazing instrumental piece that rips the listener right out of the previous track and totally satisfies all those primal rock and roll urges. Definitely a more rock flavoured FZ album compared to some of his more jazz-oriented material. And certainly one of the silliest and regrettable in terms of lyrical content.
