I saw Andy play with the Dregs about 3 years ago. It was their 25th anniversary tour and Allen Sloan, I mean, Dr. Allen Sloan! played with the band again. It was the original Dregs, then the newer version with Dave and Jerry playing, then Steve, Jerry, Dave, Rod, T, Andy and Allen all played together. It was one incredible night!
I have been following this band since 1981 and they are so musically advanced over anything I've seen or heard in those 27, I can't even think of another band that is so diverse in musical styles that plays everything so well. Definitely my Number 1 band.
Don't get me wrong, Steve/Dregs are my all time favorite, but the Flectones are the only ones who come close.
Steve was the biggest influence on me as a player, and noone in the Flectones even comes close to the original composing style Steve has, but they are damn good!
This was the last album with Allan Sloan on Violin.

I remember hearing this song on king biscuit power hour in NYC in my senior year in HS and it kicked ASS. Especially the solo.

I wish Andy West would get back with him.
