Guitarist Larry Corban leads a trio with bassist Harvie S and Steve Williams on drums. Corban wrote most of this collection, with a few covers. He is very agile and well articulates as he breezes through the melodies with a spirited pace, save a couple of ballads. Corban drew inspiration from his life experiences for The Circle Starts Here, a solid endeavor.
