I heard him sing when NPG performed at The Dakota during Superbowl week. Really good voice, a great addition to the group.

Welcome to "the org", Mumio…they can have you, but I'll have your love in the end nod

He's got a great voice. I saw him sing in a symphonic tribute to Prince in Columbus Ohio last year.

I usually don’t enjoy covers, but this made me smile, and cry, at the same time.

He’s good. Really good. He’s not Prince of course, but he’s right on point. Perfect, and a good entertainer with very good potential to grow a lot.

Morris backed him great, as did the whole NPG, they’re really professionals and cared a lot about making the song wonderful, and anytime the NPG is involved, I know I’m going to enjoy it.

And man, do I dig that Sax player. I didn’t know if he’s the same guy who played trombone at Montreux, Roy Agee. I LOVE him.

The male background vocalist was great too.

Roy Agee plays trombone but I don't know for sure if he plays sax. I do know many of the NPG members do play more than one instrument. It is so thrilling each time I see or hear of an NPG member doing something we do not typically see or know of them doing. I have been fortunate to meet and speak with Roy Agee twice back during the holidays when he played with some local funk acts here in Nashville that I went to see. He's such a sweetheart and very comical!

I really enjoyed Roy playing for Prince and I think he was a great addition to the band! Very nice that you got to speak with him! He seems to be the way you describe him.In looking at the photo that Latin recently posted of The Hornheadz in session at PP in 2012,it looks to be the same saxophonist to me. smile

Yes Roy is one of the NPG members that I'm fortunate to hopefully see more of! He actually resides here in Nashville. He jams or records with a host of musicians here in town that I've heard of and some that I had not heard of til I started looking at his career. It is through him that I've learned about many of the funk, jazz, and big band groups here in music city that I otherwise wouldl not know about. He's an avid hugger and if you ever get to see him be prepared to be hugged!

Very cool! A few months back someone posted an interview with Joey Rayfield and he told a hilarious story about Roy meeting Prince for the first time at PP.He sounds like a lot of fun to be around!

I was going to inquire when they're coming this way but I checked their schedule. I see the are going all over the world, I like that but I guess it's going to take a while for them to swing this way. Oh well I'll just save my pennies just in case.
