A great album for all lovers of instrumental music, May 3, 2003
Reviewer:  (Woburn, MA United States) - 
I picked up this album circa 1980, after seeing the band on TV's "Midnight Special." I'd been listening a lot to Jean-Luc Ponty albums like "Cosmic Messenger" and "Egocentric Molecules", on which the songs had fantastic, intricate opening and closing sections, but in the middle were long solos while the band vamped on two chords. The Dixie Dregs, who like Ponty were inspired by the Mahavishnu Orchestra, took Ponty's approach to the next level. While a Dreg soloed, the rest of the band was always doing something interesting to keep the listener's attention. The result was the best answer America has ever been able to produce to Britain's prog-rock bands like Yes or ELP: five virtuoso musicians, playing instrumental-only rock music with great melodies, intricate arrangements, and catchy solos, in a variety of styles that somehow all worked together. Led by Steve Morse, who for my money is the best guitarist on the planet.

"What If" has better production and more consistent songwriting than the first Dixie Dregs album, "Freefall". The cuts, mostly written by Morse, include straight-ahead rock ("Take It Off the Top"), progressive rock ("Odyssey"), ballads ("What If" and "Night Meets Light"), bluegrass ("Gina Lola Breakdown"), and even a baroque piece for classical guitar and violin ("Little Kids"--a passer-by once asked me if it was Vivaldi). The best cuts are "Take It Off the Top", the funky "Ice Cakes", and "Night Meets Light", but even the weakest track would be a highlight on many a lesser band's album. "Night Meets Light" is a stunner, a long, gorgeous tune with a lot of time-signature changes that aren't immediately apparent (there's a lot of 5/8). The Dregs' signature sound is electric guitar and violin playing in unison to create a wailing sound. Allen Sloan's violin work is especially stunning, able to both match Morse's breakneck speed and give a impossibly lush, romantic sound to solos on "Odyssey" and "Night Meets Light"

Grading Details:

I have graded my records and Cd's according to the following standard industry system 

NM (near mint) like new, one or two small defects only. 9 -10 on scale.

*M- (mint minus ) very nice, hairline scratch,scuff,plays clean. 8 on scale.

*VG++ (very good plus plus) still nice, plays fine, glossy but a few more defects. 7 on the scale

*VG+ (very good plus) nice but used, a series of scratches or defects. a few pops and crackles. 6 on the scale.

*VG (very good) well used but playable with moderate noise. 5 on a scale of 1-10 and as low as I will go with anything offered individually or in small lots.
