Upon completion of Veritas, multi-reed player Geoff Thaler and pianist Mark Christopher Brandt put together a powerful electric band which was featured on Mark’s next two albums - In Spirit being the first.
While Mark’s multi keyboard and arranging skills are notable, equally notable is the fact that all of the ensemble tracks, including the improvised solos, were recorded in one take, making this album a “live” studio recording of incredible energy with an appropriate title.
This recording paved the way for multiple performances in a variety of musical configurations until Mark's hiatus from performing at the end of 1999.
