Album Notes & Community Reviews

The insanely prolific former Frank Zappa guitarist delivers a remarkably accessible yet wildly eclectic solo album bridging complex jazz-rock with sunny pop songwriting. 'Dancing' seamlessly weaves highly intricate, progressive instrumental interludes into upbeat, Beatles-esque vocal harmonies. The sprawling, impeccably performed project frequently earns praise as one of Keneally's most cohesive and thoroughly enjoyable masterpieces.
