In "Satin, Silk, Or Nude" Carl grabbed onto the hook line from an aspiring actress who professed her bedtime habit in dramatic fashion after an evening of fine dining. Jason underscored the classy lady with a gypsy/swing feel and Chuck brought depth to her with his sophisticated horn arrangements.

Jason adds his tribute to the late Stevie Ray Vaughan in "Skiddadlin`" while confessing he thought he`d never be able to play the difficult piece through cleanly.

We add a touch of gospel in James Peterson`s murder mystery, "Who Shot John".
|
|
|
We get a little sneaky in the humorous, but all too true "FE-mail Affair". More than a few folks these days will relate to this "ain`t really cheatin` song."

Carl brings one of his half-dozen distinct voices on this CD to the funky dance tune, "Shake That Butt". Jason brought his new found love of James Brown to the music and Chuck decorated the song with his New Horsemen Horn arrangements and fun rap interlude.

Jason laments a short-lived fling with a beautiful girl who lived too far away and in another lifestyle. Love at first sight, but star-crossed and futile. "Love`s Labors Lost" is a Shakespearean play that embodies what Jason fantasizes in "another time, another place".

|
The only pure blues on the CD is a spoof, inspired by a set of very unidentical twins Carl met years back, one pretty and one ugly, both infatuated. The politically incorrect "Ugly Woman Blues" will mortify the usual offendees, but is presented with a wink and a smile nonetheless.

"Arkansas Clown" is Carl`s bizarre true story that actually took place in 1994 near Hot Springs, Arkansas. To this day the band members tease and scare him with pictures and stories of clowns.

Jason practiced the Rimsky-Korsakov classic "Flight Of The Bumble Bee" for years as a technique exercise. He liked it so well that he created "Humbucker Boogie" to showcase it in rock blues style.
