O’s Notes: Moraine is a hard charging progressive rock band lead by guitarist Dennis Rea. The rest of the band is violinist Alicia DeJoie, James DeJoie (sax, fl, perc), Kevin Millard (b) and Stephen Cavit (d, perc). They relax the pace a notch on “Disillusioned Avatar” but only to catch a breather. Moraine thrives on sheer intensity as illustrated on “Uncle Tang’s Cabinet of Dr. Caligari”. It is a live performance and the crowd is in it and progressive rock fans will be too.
