I don't see much prog in king's x, ever. "Bebop" is a kick ass tune. It's straight R & R funk.

Technically, the bass and drums come in for about 20 seconds in Honesty", then the guitar closes it out for the last 20 or so..close enough for me...

The last tune is pretty funny on reflection. With 12 other tunes it's not a turn off. But comparing it to "Water Ceremony"..that tune is what 15 seconds long? This one's about 2 and a half.

That "If" tune's chorus...play it side by side with the MJ song.. you'll see...but it's a pleasant tune nonetheless.

By the way, I've watched about four tunes from the DVD you gave me (finally got it converted). It appears to be last year's Thunderdome (now closed) show. The show there two years prior was the best I'd seen them, but this one was great...of course they're always great live. The sound is fairly crappy, but I couldn't listen too loud. It's hard for me to watch a DVD around the house, I'm always doing something. But thanks again, and I'll watch it all soon. It was surreal seeing a "bar" show that you're at you know? I doubt you'll see me - I was about 30 feet back and the camera appears to be stationed on one spot...but we shall see
