You'd hardly think the leader of the band was the keyboard player, the keyboards hardly dominate. Very effective playing though, providing great commentary.

Have heard the name but that's it. It's the bass that I'm enjoying the most of all the instruments, though there's such an organic feel that it's not really fair to spotlight just one player.

Exactly - Manfred has never played a prominent part in any of his bands - even The Earthband

Penetrating keys...!

I just adore Hugg's vocals - he makes even the most innocent words sound dark and perverted

Love the high backing vocals - sound like they've been flown in from a Sergio Mendes track - great mix with the bass groove and the free keyboards.
