I did a six month stint in his dad's band some time back.[Jazz Trombonist Don Lang]

I recall doing a gig for Don Lang and Wee Willie... and they were doing their 60's nostalgia act at the time.
Classic and funny gig as anything with Wee Willie would be...:)

Damn! That's gonna bug me all night now.... Great album that one.

Ha! Remembered - Matthew Seligman!! Now where did that come from?

Are we sure about that one, based on subsequent comments by JBJ?

Sampled from the original bassline and fragmented in to 50 plus samples.

I love this album.

PS, Terry Jackson plays bass on this album.[/quote]

Brilliant album....

So is that the Terry Jackson that played on Black & White by Michael Jackson?
