Glad you liked it Smokey - not sure if you'd ever heard Jason playing Afro  
Blue, and I know you previously didn't get to see a lot of the videos of 
the  Band due to not having high-speed. Now you can enjoy. These Kornbrennerei 
videos  are extremely good quality. View them full screen and it's 'almost' 
as good as  seeing them Live. 
 
I screwed up, though...Part Deux contained a 'malformed url' as I just  
found out in trying to watch it again...so I'm assuming you managed to find it  
among all the other JR&NB vids listed. Just for others' edification: if  
you hover your mouse over the title in the margin, it will further identify  
the video. 
 
Here's the correct url (I hope):
 
Afro Blue (Part Deux)

I don't know how many people appreciate how  hard it is to do  
something with this tune. As with most Afro  influenced tunes (Afro  
Blue, Afro Harping, etc), they are rhythm based  and quite  
repetitious. Very little bridge to work with. This is a  GREAT here. I  
am delighted when someone comes along and does a tune  better than the  
original artist.
