The newer material like Love Will Find A Way and Family Man were only moderately well performed as the band appeared both disinterested and removed from their task at hand. Old favorites such as A Place In The Sun and Watcha Gonna Do were welcome pieces for a somewhat indifferent crowd but even they were limited in their ap­ peal and lacked conviction. What became most apparent throughout the performance was that Pablo Cruise has lost its initial sense of direction. That loss is due primarily to a personnel change that occurred during the summer of '77 some months after the release of A Place In The Sun. Bass player and lead vocalist Bud Cockrell made his abrupt and unex­ pected departure to re-unite with former female vocalist of It's A Beautiful Day, Carly Santos.
