This is real and spirited music. Glad to see that someone has picked up the torch to continue it. May they not be the only ones to do so. Awesome!!

The astute observer can see the Drops have a lot of respect for Joe as he is a major inspiration for them. I remember when the Drops used to go up to visit Joe to learn all they could from him. Good for them!! Glad someone did!

This is the original crew with one of the sources of their sound. I preferred their sound much more during this early part of the groups short run, even though they were still kind of raw... that was what set them apart from the rest. Good music.
