P , thankx for introducing me to Billy Cobham...

Up until I heard P and the Band cover Stratus at the 02 i had no idea who Billy was. Just bought the longer live version [9+ mins] off ITUNES, and it's great. Although P's version is better!.

Agree totally - I'd also never heard 'Mother's Finest' and am searching for their records after downloading 'Love Changes' and Baby Love'

Otherwise I wouldn't be here lol!!

Have you got any of their other stuff? Anything to recommend? I was going to go for a greatest hits or seomthing, but if there's a stand out album I would rather get that as I think they're fab. Everytime I listen to Love Changes I have a HUGE smile remembering the Indigo. That could be a song title..
