Leslie West - Aligator (1989)

This album shows off Leslie's playing with a Ton of Instrumental work. The original "Sea of Fire"(Best version?) starts off the album followed up after some instrumental work with a killer version of "I put a spell on you".

Concrete Blonde's Johnette Napolitano joins Leslie on Free's "The Stealer" for a work out that is well worth a listen.(Leslie has covered a number of Free songs lately,check out "Woman" on Blue Me) The album finishes up with a excellent instrumental melody of "Hall of the Mountain King/Theme from Exodus" and then a stellar version of "Dream Lover".

There is really on one problem with this excellent offering-the shortness of the entire album. (by bluematter)
