Actually the album title is Minors Aloud that being the title cut and these 2 Musical Masters share writing credits for this tune. Great album if you like Jazz...These are bona-fide Jazz numbers too! Sound quality is really good too.I listen to this LP a lot...Tom Bradshaw at PSG Products still has it listed on his site...the address is available from the links block above...
Besides the title cut, there are 6 others Killer Joe
Compared to What
Long Way to Go
Scrapple
Secret Love
On a Bach Bouree [another Breau comp]

OOPS! Sorry guys, didn't mean to step on your replies guess I was typing and didn't see your posts.
BTW there are no credits for the vocals on Compared....anybody know which one of the guys it is?
Hey Malcolm, is this album available from your catalog? I need to replace my copy.

I believe that Mr. Emmons gets the credit for that vocal.

Whether he wants to take the credit is another story.

Yes, Buddy's singing was the reason I never bought this album.

Jim, you said it well.

What a guy won't do to get to vent his frustrations on a recording. You, Dave Van Allen and I ought to get together over coffee and discuss what went wrong.

Lenny sang Secret Love, which I thought was quite cute.[This message was edited by Buddy Emmons on 02 July 2001 at 05:46 AM.]

Hey Buddy, Why not do an video with Candy Dulfer,She's a great Sax player and not too hard on the eyes. Most of our Formites would be watching her and you can sing all you want LOL. Im sure our friends in Amsterdam could set that up.. see ya soon here in Vegas Bill Nauman

Posted: **2 Jul 2001 5:45 am**

I remember getting the LP and putting it on. My Mom and Dad were both home and I said that Buddy was singing this cut. Then it got to the "frustration" line. Mom said, "Oh, my" and and Dad laughed.
I'll never forget the look on her face. Like the commercial: Priceless!
Great LP, Buddy!

Aaah yes, Ernie. I do love the element of surprise.

I have a Lenny Breau LP calld "When Lightning Strikes...Jazz." with some uncredited steel on several of the cuts. I assume that's you Buddy.

I know you and he and Buddy Spicher did an album called "Buddies." What other (if any) recordings did you make with him?

Posted: **3 Jul 2001 4:45 am**

Mike,
Yes, I was on the Lighting album and it might be the last album Lenny recorded. The different sound than I ordinarily use was from a pickup consisting of two six-string rhythm guitar pickups bridged together. I slid it under the strings and had to tape it down to keep my right hand from bumping it out of position as I played.

I guess the total albums I recorded with Lenny were four, but outside of Lightning Strikes, they have all been mentioned above. There was a taping of Danny Gatton, Lenny, and myself at the Cellar door, but I don't have a clue as to where it ended up.

When it came to music, Lenny, Danny, and John Hartford were three of the most devoted human beings I've ever had the pleasure of working with and I miss them so much.

Coffee!?!?!?

Wrong?!?

Thanks, gentlemen. I was hoping someone would catch it.

Gentlemen?!?[This message was edited by Larry Bell on 03 July 2001 at 10:17 AM.]

Buddies is one of the best albums IMO.
I just love "Broken down in tiny pieces"
The song I played when I had my first broken heart. Boy, this brings back memories.
