(2-LP set) "On Call" is the 3rd album by Peter Erskine & The Dr. Um Band, a double packageLP with six studio and five 'live' tracks, featuring keyboardist/arranger John Beasley, saxophonist Bob Sheppard, bass phenom Benjamin Shepherd and legendary drummer Peter Erskine. With an album cover that recalls Weather Report's "Night Passage" album (which featured live & studio cuts), the Dr. Um Band realizes the musical potential of fusion and completes a picture that Joe Zawinul and Wayne Shorter began painting 50 years ago. From the first track's uncanny and authentic evocation of WR to it's thrilling concert cuts, "On Call" is the album fusion fans have been waiting for. Plus, it swings & sounds great.

A Master
This is an amazing display of virtuosic and musical complexity by one of the great drummers of all time and a once in a generation talent I’ve never heard Peter Erskine any better although is many works are likely to challenge this statement this is living proof that wine isn’t the only thing that ages better amazing band and in my opinion his hardcore fans will enjoy this the most an absolute 10!!!!!

DR UM
Le genre de Dr que l'on aime consulter.Erkine est super bien entouré.J'espère les voir en tournée sur Paris ou ailleurs en France.Seul petit bémol les morceaux joués en live on entend pas la réaction du public.Je ne pense pas qu'il c'était endormi vu la prestation géniale du Dr et son band.
