IMHO JESTER has not very in common with SPREAD EAGLE.... The first SPREAD EAGLE CD is very raw, heavy and sleazy..... and back in 1990 they sounded a lot different than the other bands, SPREAD EAGLE came form NYC, most of the "other" bands came from LA, you could hear it...... By the way I think the SPREAD EAGLE guitarist Paul DiBartolo kicks the shit out of most guitar players.... The new JESTER has some VERY GOOD songs, I like it...... but comparing JESTER with SPREAD EAGLE is very strange to me......
