The first year of this album's release, Safari, climbed to #14 on Billboard national charts. When the predominant rhythms from latin, and funk come together, a compelling energy results. The musicianship presented in this album reflects a happiness and positive spirit throughout. Driving forces behind the sound are pianist and composers, Darrell Smith and Randy Farrar, bassist Paul Merar, Ken Yerke, Pavel Farkis, Dick McIlvery, Rick Gerding and Glen Crab. Patrick Plunkett on tenor and alto saxophone and son, Aaron Plunkett on drums and percussion, are a compelling union, and supports that music is a central chord upon which all generations come together.
