I couldn't agree more Rodge. I love to read the liner notes.

First off,
I loved Chris Brady before he posted this, but now... Well...

And Rodge, yes, yes, yes! As someone making music, I wanna know who else is doing it, especially when I like what I hear!!

Mark, I love you too!
Beckett gets the props on this one again. He is always searching out Jeff stuff. By the way boys, Mark P plays a mean "Rock with You" intro!

Rodge- Reading the liner notes for the rundown of musicians is always part of the thrill of buying Albums/CD's for me too.

Sue me but I'm known to read liner notes multiple times...Especially the ones that take up many pages. :D

I read in Quincy's Autobiography that Jeff's Track on this song was so hot that it was roasting the monitors on playback....

Thanks for posting this... Very cool!

Rodge, I always thought I was the weird guy because I always wanted to read who played on what tracks while most of the people were yelling "who cares?"... Apparently I am not alone. :)
