40 years after first forming the band, the original founders guitarist John Goodsall and bassist Percy Jones re-formed their jazz fusion progressive rock band Brand X in 2016, first for a special reunion show, but then the band continued on for further touring in 2017 and beyond. . The new version of the band had Chris Clark on keyboards, Scott Weinberger on percussion, and brought back Kenwood Dennard on Drums. In 2017, Kenny Grohowski replaced Dennard on drums. Demonstrating that they still had what it takes, here is a show from 2019. Unfortunately, Goodsall was not available for this show, part of a progressive rock special cruise (the Cruise to the Edge series - also featured on the Cruise that year: Yes, Steve Hackett, PFM, Pendragon, Soft Machine, Riverside, Gazpacho, and the David Cross Band), but guitarist Alex Machacek capably fills in.Thanks to taper Lostbrook who was on the Cruise and captured many of the shows on tape and has made them available. Check out Brand X still sizzling in 2019.
