Rob is an incredibly nice and humble guy. Rob was an actor and I met him through Fred Mulvey of Miller's Outpost commercials which Rob acted in. Jamex records and Stephen Boyd picked up the release on this record. My memories of the sessions are of joy and appreciation for the artist and the players. Unfortunately, I havent spoken with Rob since the late 80's.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12203441211567801025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31587996.post-18393654242785103292016-06-30T23:02:16.698+00:002016-06-30T23:02:16.698+00:00@ColdLook

I bought that single on ebay some months ago,but i still have to listen the song with my ears!!! The question is simple,at the moment i don't have a LP player and take albums before they become too expensive (too late for the Tro LP,paid 150€…).Your site,youtube and many others are the perfect way to listen before buying. When i'll find someone that do the dirty job,i'll immediately pass you the file,be sure about it!<br />I can't thank you enough for all the A.O.R. gems discovered in your blog!ColdLooknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31587996.post-83773536034069993182014-08-09T11:44:39.566+00:002014-08-09T11:44:39.566+00:00@ ColdLook:

Who apparently once upon a time released a genius but impossible-to-find AOR demo, though never having heard it (subtle hint) I'm somewhat sceptic if the substandard quality of the only output of his that I own is anything to go by.troynewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239195167027976162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31587996.post-42663603348247889132011-07-14T11:19:32.365+00:002011-07-14T11:19:32.365+00:00Quite simply the best westcoast album I've hea...Quite simply the best westcoast album I've heard in ages. Most releases in the genre abound with generic vocals and formulaic songs that you're likely to forget two seconds after hearing them draw to a close, but this one's got too many memorable tunes to mention. (I even far prefer it to David Roberts, all of Frédéric Slama's stuff and, let's say, vintage John Warren or Bobby Caldwell. Frankly only LA Cowboys and Fingerprints come to mind as being superior, or maybe I'm just extremely hazy after an entirely fictional night of heavy boozing.) PS: No, I never heard of the guy either, much like White Heat. But I suspect he dropped the 'y' from his name because it refused to rhyme with 'intro', and he figured 'introy' sounded a bit weird. ;-) Regardless of what some anonymous guests say, you seem to be going from strength to strength. Thanks for sharing another little gem with the jaded, undeserving (myself included) crowd that populates this here home away from home.troynewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239195167027976162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31587996.post-13799592066267632011-07-14T11:18:21.013+00:002011-07-14T11:18:21.013+00:00This comment has been removed by the author.troynewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239195167027976162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31587996.post-48972981506540845662011-07-11T17:07:35.510+00:002011-07-11T17:07:35.510+00:00Wow!!!
