We know what you're thinking - if you only have $17 should you get the Howland/Imboden Project's "Live at the Baked Potato", or should you pick up Howland/Laug/Morrison/Pinnick's Live At The Baked Potato? The answer my friend is that you need to get another 17 bucks because you'll miss out on eleven tracks of blistering instrumental fusion either way you go if you have to make a choice. Recorded the day after the Howland/Imboden gig, the HLMP band adds a second guitarist to the rock/jazz party, Mr. Chris Pinnick, who had worked with the band Chicago during their heyday in the early eighties (and we all know Chris is an exciting, energetic and musical player with frightening chops). HLMP is ever so slightly more to the rock side of fusion than Howland/Imboden, and a couple of tracks sneak onto both CDs ("Your Old Thingy", "Sharp Funk 5", with different solos, of course), and you can compare for yourself the various sounds the two Howland-fueled bands can muster. Tough choice - simple answer, don't make a choice - get both. Instrumental Guitar (Electric (Heavy)/Fusion/Rock), total running time, 73:12 - Howland/Laug/Morrison/Pinnick @ iTunes!
