The music is a unique mixture of many different genres; jazz, rock, R&B and funk, to name a few. Much of the music had no singing and the songs were very long and complicated, involving different parts and many complicated solos. In between songs each musician performed solos on their instruments, which proved the talent, they held on their instruments even more. The bassist was the most impressive, though.

His stage acts were so wild, Time magazine described it as: "He hopped, twisted and rolled over sideways without missing a twang or a moan.
