Zzebra

For the coveted sophomore album by British fusion band Zzebra, the group underwent some lineup changes, the arrival of the former Joe Cocker keyboardist Tommy Eyre and guitarist Steve Byrd enabling further excursions into unknow territory, morphing the Righteous Brothers’ ‘You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling’ into a space-rock synth epic and ‘Panic’ somewhere between metal, be-bop and Latin rock; ‘Tree’ is driven by the vocals of former One frontman Alan Marshall and ‘Liamo’ heightens the African element from former Osibisa percussionist Loughty Amao. A total killer from start to finish – arguably Zzebra’s best!
