I am one of those people alive when the so-called craze came about, and was very happy when it passed...the rest of the album is, in my opinion, still very good listening..<br />rpinerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08952370990822390195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9203041668883109940.post-48241493069025952642010-09-05T03:46:42.966-04:002010-09-05T03:46:42.966-04:00Jeff...

He was brilliant. The entire album done in one day with one rehersal. <BR/><BR/>All the songs were original, charted and VV knew exactly what he wanted in terms of sound, blend, and the finished product came out all VV.<BR/><BR/>MARK SLOTKIN<BR/>JAN, 2009abbey123https://www.blogger.com/profile/05509827328651623304noreply@blogger.com
