Alex - you know how to pick 'em. Thanks for those Maceo links.
Frogman - Another very insightful post from you. Ever think about doing record reviews? Better than a lot of the stuff I read. I should have realized who the JBs were. Recognized the "sound/style" but thought their name was homage. Didn't look up personnel. The trombone threw me a bit too. I didn't recall one backing him...but it's been a long time and I don't know much of his full career. Yes, a couple of gems though, as you wrote, not as strong as the package with JB's vocals. Your comments about Takuya Kuroda very perceptive...I can hear what you critique.
O - were you keeping your silence regarding something I wrote?
