The A Team band has been busy recording at The Pond, and I now have rough mixes for three tunes, with final mixes scheduled after Christmas. As always, these tunes are stylistically very different --- a fairly uptempo swing blues called Good to Be Queen with Maria Jacqueline on lead vocal, a 70s Philly soul opus (almost 5 minutes long!) called One or Two with David Fuller doing the honors with the mighty Talisker Horns, and finally, a Tom Waitsian paean to paranoia called I Got The Fear Again, featuring a more stripped-down band with my new friend Tom West on piano and accordion (and Ducky on drums).
Lots of fun and good music coming, very exciting!
