Thanks Guys -that's cleared up all my loose ends. Now I can sleep at night!
Joe Chavis will be backing Leon this weekend. The rest of the band are some very competent Brits - yes, there are some! Actually, I do the bass player a dis-service. I think it'll be Vera van Heeringen, from the Netherlands.
Getting back to the reggae discusion for a minute, I saw Horace Trahan last year at the Blue Moon saloon for Mardi Gras and they did a few reggae tunes which I thought were awsome. They really had the place jammin and the political basis on some were right on. It may have been a turn off for some, expecting different Horace style , but I thought it was great to have in the set. I would consider buying an album with some of that on it if he would put it out.
