Extrapolation - Steps

Review by Stephen Thwaites

Extrapolation's latest album, Steps, is a stunning display of musical talent and creativity. The band's fusion of jazz, funk, and rock elements creates a unique and dynamic sound that is both energizing and captivating.

From the opening track "Rise Up" to the closing "Endgame," each song on Steps showcases the band's incredible musicianship and songwriting abilities. The intricate guitar work of lead guitarist John McLaughlin is particularly impressive, and is complemented by the driving rhythms of bassist Brian Odgers and drummer Tony Oxley.

The album's standout track is arguably "Binky's Beam," a funky, up-tempo number that highlights the band's ability to seamlessly blend different genres and styles. Other standout tracks include the soulful "Spectrum" and the atmospheric "Beneath the Surface."
