6972. Brand X - Modern, Noisy and Effective

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61EjmNcW-QL.jpg
From: Is There Anything About?; Year: 1982; Genre: Jazz Fusion/Progressive Rock
Do not know why, but just started to play this record from the jazz fusion band Brand X and immediately liked it. I guess you could say that they were wot you got if you had a group of highly skilled British musicians/composers try their hand at the jazz fusion that was popular in The States at the time. I have to say, it turns out you really get a great result all around and then some.
Is There Anything About? was the leftovers/reworked tracks from their two previous albums following the band's dissolution that would last just over a decade. Whist these songs are not the best that the Brand X put out, they are very listenable as wot they are: dusted down scraps from the cutting room floor. This one was essentially redo of a backing track from their song Soho on the '79 record Product.
