I've been let down by both of the Peacefrog albums, they're competent works 
but I can often play them without a single track grabbing my attention. 
Connections also is bland at times even when all the right elements seem to be 
there. Which makes want to like the album badly, but it doesn't quite work for 
me. 
 
One of my faves that hasn't been mentioned yet is the 12" Steve put out on the 
Mo'Wax Excursions series - tracks like Warrior are very funky with more 
live-sounding drums. I wish he'd do more in this vein.
