Listener Reviews & Comments
When Johnny Otis gave his blessings to Lavay and the boys a few years ago it just confirmed what saavy listeners in the Bay area knew already. They smoke! This CD is a great sophomore effort (avoiding the dread slump afflicting so many bands in almost every genre). Great song selections, arrangements, lush vocals with just the right amount of bite by Lavay and a joyous swing vibe throughout. If you don't want to dance to this music, you must be dead. Also a serious tip of the hat for the superb analog like (meant in the best sense) sound quality, it's HDCD mastered by Paul Stubblebine (an SF audio engineer legend). Buy this CD, take your significant other out for a spin and enjoy a glorious Spring season.
