Re: We Want Grooove

The cd is great. I would say that Octopus-e, Ode to Gee, and Animal/Work are some of my early favs.

Re: We Want Grooove

Really itching to know...whose idea was it to put the 'hidden track' (Mr. Clean) after approximately 4 minutes of eternity, post track 9? Bloody brilliant!!!! It should have been longer!!! Barely gives us mortals enough time to recover from the shock of digesting the material we just heard for the past hour!!! I mean that....sincerely!!!

Or was it an honest accident in the mastering process.... tongue tongue Either way !!!!! C-L-E-V-E-R !!!!!

Re: We Want Grooove

very excellent playing by all, right up my alley so to speak. Now if I could just get my copy delivered, please please mr postman. Should not be too much longer now. I wish it had some of those "extras" played at the potato, sounds really good live.

Re: We Want Grooove

Oh, ok, I suppose I can add another upload...

"Ode To Gee" in all it's Fun-kay glory!

I forgot to ask Joe whether the Ode To Gee was directed to Gee, as in "Gee Whiz", or since I thought I saw it listed as Ode To G(ee) at one point, maybe in my sleep roll , that it might have been for Larry G(ee) from Dallas?!

Anyway...: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=on4hbwGHrKU

Re: We Want Grooove

Thanks everyone for their reviews and videos.  Makes me feel like I really missed out on a special moment in time.  especially Natasha's revew.  Hopefully they will get together more often now the album is a big success.

That would be Garth Close.  He was known only as "G" (well, besides Garth and G Man).  Larry G(ee) [Not our huge Joe fan Larry G from Albany, NY] is a soulful funk band. Check 'em out!

We haven't even scratched the surface yet. Lots to go. We all can dream, but a few of us got real lucky! You know this stuff is good when it already has hip hop and rappers using sampled riffs according to reports.

Free download from Vienna! http://mbsy.co/bNLR
Lots of unique videos of Joe http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwd5vL8fXTw

Well, I knew it was in the key of G, the "Gee" made me wonder what that was about...
