I was kind of shocked when I put this CD on. What decade is this? From the synthy sound of things, I’d guess it was the late ’80s. Wrong. There was no shift in the space-time continuum, it’s just the Grismore/Scea Group’s new album Well Behaved Fish. Whether or not we’re ready for a revival of guitar synths, wind controllers, and MIDI drum pads, here it is. I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later. The retro sound adds a bit of quirkiness to the group’s jazz fusion grooves. I never thought I’d say it, but it’s actually kind of refreshing to hear those TR-808 drum sounds again.
