Twennynine w/ Lenny White - "Peanut Butter" / "Best Of Friends" / "Morning Sunrise" , etc...

...

Twennynine was another gathering of Jazzers, Funkmeisters and Rockers in the Jamaica, Queens Area of NYC, the same place that gave rise to, Marcus Miller, Tom Browne, Bernard Wright and others under the tutelage of the late Weldon Irvine...

The core group was Lenny White on drums ( Miles, Return to Forever) Barry "Sonjohn" Johnson on Bass and lead vocals, Eddie Martinez(Run DMC's Kimg Of Rock, Rock Box ) on Guitar, along with Nicky Moroch, Don Blackman(of Don Blackman fame, lol) on Keys and Synths and vocals, Skip Martin(Keys), and Carla Vaughn on vocals...along with guests like Dee Dee Bridgewater, Dave Grusin, Larry Dunn (Earth Wind and Fire), Bernard Wright, and Denzil Miller on keys....



Best Of Friends





Peanut Butter





Morning Sunrise





Movin' On





My Melody

I bought the album as a kid to have Peanut Butter but I quickly fell in love with Best of Friends - the title track.
We all want the stuff that's found in our wildest dreams.
