I am a big fan of Graydon and Goodrum, but thought that "Scene 29" was a snooze fest.
I haven't really bought newer WEC stuff, as I find it always less inspiring than the originals. I mean, not many things can beat Bill LaBounty's self-titled and The Right Direction album (not even him! :-)).
I always go back to Steely Dan, Nielsen/Pearson, Bill LaBounty, Jay Graydon, Marc Jordan, Dwayne Ford and the likes. Not big on Robbie Dupree though.
Will check all bands listed above though. Would be nice to hear some new stuff.
Most recent album I really LOVED - not sure it is WEC though - was David Mader's 90 Days Of Rain. Superb.
