X-Communication

"Xcommunication" is the seventh studio album by the jazz fusion band Brand X, released in 1992. This album marked the band's return to the studio after more than a decade since their previous studio release.

During the hiatus leading up to "Xcommunication," the band underwent various lineup changes. Notably, founding members Phil Collins and Percy Jones were no longer part of the lineup for this album. Instead, the album features John Goodsall on guitars, Frank Katz on drums, and John Giblin on bass. The absence of Phil Collins, who was a prominent member and contributed significantly to the band's earlier albums, was particularly noted by fans and critics.

"Xcommunication" represents a continuation of Brand X's fusion of jazz, rock, and progressive elements. The album explores intricate compositions and showcases the virtuosity of the musicians involved. It was well-received by fans of the band's earlier work, marking a comeback for Brand X in the 1990s despite the changed lineup dynamics.

Overall, "Xcommunication" stands as a testament to Brand X's enduring appeal and their ability to adapt their sound while maintaining their signature fusion style.
