Powertron. Wow,Bill,I'm not being a wise guy with you,but who lit a fire under you? This one is just first class,from opening to closing number. I have been following your music since 76?,and in my humble opinion,this is up there with The Love that Whirls,Crimsworth,New Vibrato Wonderland,and some others. I can see (I think), why you put these songs in this collection as you did. These songs drive! The guitar work,the guitars used,the blending of the guitars(and that is an art unto itself), the songs themselves, the vocals, all is first class. I remember when I heard your "Jet Pack Jive" (not on this CD),and I thought,now here is a driving piece of music! I have to say,Fascinating Noise,and the others,are right up there with JPJ. I'm not big on raving,for no one likes every thing that is on a cd,but if ever a cd was worth raving about: Powertron is it.

Fair Winds And Steam Machines is an optimistic song. 🌟★☆⭐︎😎
This is Bill's best album in a long while IMO. I love his more adventurous albums like My Private Cosmos, Auditoria etc., but as far as rockers that hold up well to his "classic" angular upbeat style, this ranks up there with Special Metal (as Bill mentioned in his "Bill's Thoughts" on the album page).
It's a terrific piece of work 👍❤️
