The only way his children could keep it real would be to step off stage. Nepotism at it's worst. Get a couple of pros, Brian! You deserve them. As for his daughter "really moves", Really?

these young people have old souls or they've been here in another life. They totally embody the spirit and sound of the seventies.I like the way savanah weaves in and out of the music. she's not all over it the way some singers would try and take over the spotlight. you hear her and you think of Lydia Pense from cold blood, the same style...awsome. give her a chance,she can only get better. karma, well what can I say, i am an admirer of his work with Coryell- Auger-Sample trio,(another great group). the bass player is phenomenal. I play also and can only aspire to be as fluid and funky as he is. and wonderfull brian, brilliant as always or brill as he says. It's all in the genes and he passed down some good ones. father and son look like then and now, so much alike. I didn't think I would find another keyboard player to peak my interest since Joe samples passing but Brian now has my full attention. this is great music. a far cry from what's on the radio today. bless you Brian and bless you for posting this.

I have the whole concert on DVD. Loved Oblivion Express the first time I heard them in my teens and bought the Closer to It album. I thought Brian was phenomenal on keyboards and later bought the album Second Wind. I was blown away by Karma’s incredible drumming. I had always thought Keith Moon was the ultimate drummer. I have to say as a drummer myself, I have never heard anyone that’s even in the same building with Karma except Neil Peart. Lastly, Savannah Grace can really belt out a song. She sang Light my Fire on the DVD and she nailed with the entire band and I have watched it many times. The bassist I think is Derek Frank and he is great too. So glad I bought the DVD with CD. Savannah obviously stays very healthy. Most were enjoying beer n drinks, but she only drinks bottled water. It shows. Beautiful lady and ultra talented family!!!!

Savannah is around 30 when that concert went down. She’s an awesome singer and a beautiful lady. Her brother Karma on drums is a little older than her and I don’t know very many drummers with the kind of talent he has except Neil Peart. Moon and Bonham had always been my favorites in grade school, but both passed away in the very late 70s.

Eddie may have had a slightly higher profile, but it was Les’s group.) No disrespect to Auger, though-he always makes it cook.
