Schaffer's album „Earmeal“ (1978, Columbia) was actually named after a band he formed along with Björn J:son Lindh a few years back. It was pressed in seven different versions for worldwide distribution and there was a good reason for the fact: He had invited the Porcaro brothers from Toto to play with him, Steven as a conductor and Jeff on drums, along with their father Joe on percussion.
This resulted to an album of general reception, an instrumental work with elements from Jazz, Blues, Funk and Melodic Rock, which sounded fairly accessible compared to his previous albums both because the Porcaro brothers had a different background and the fact we were heading to the 80's, but the composing level remains pretty high with interesting arrangements in both fast-paced and more laid-back tunes with guitar-led Fusion remaining the driving force. Slick at moments and funkier than it should be, still bursting some nice passionate levels of energy and containing cool melodies and solos.
