Fingers Removed

[tropic]

Seems to me that "Fingers" might have been intentionally removed from some (repeat some) of the classic redone songs of the Meet me in margaritaville cd.
Dont get me wrong I love the selection of songs, but without the harmonica the songs seem to be just rehashed, subpar works of the originals.

Greg "Fingers" Taylor and Mr. Utley ARE the Coral Reefer band.
Dont redo a original song without either one of them and expect true parrotheads to enjoy those as much as the originals.

Um, let's see....

1) Jimmy decides to rerecord some of the old tunes with the CURRENT coral reefer band.

2) Fingers is NOT IN the current coral reefer band.

Yup you're right - it's a conspiracy.

I figgered it wouldn't be long before you weighed in on this Lee! Mighty restrained, I might add....

I know this might not be the most popular opinion around here, but being a huge fan of caribbean music and not much into country, I like the fills in the songs being done on the pans rather than the harp. Gives every song that Island feel.
