About The Record:

The Cate Brothers, now billed slightly differently, reintroduced themselves billed as an official quartet with their third album, also displaying a tighter sound in the process. With Ernie Cate handling most of the lead vocals (as well as keyboards) and Earl Cate mostly singing backup and on lead guitar, and a rhythm section of Terry Cagle (drums) and Ron Eoff (bass), who also sing harmony, they have a very powerful yet mostly lyrical sound, overall slightly reminiscent of the Doobie Brothers but with more intensity and virtuosity (especially from Earl Cate's playing).
