about

Body Language - our final CD as a team.

After all the many changes we made to our style, looking back, this CD really nails some of the concepts we'd been working on. It aptly ends with a piece entitled Forever, a tribute I composed to our most simple style, with the percussion and acoustic guitar alone. This CD contained our first #1 song, Seduction, which lasted 9 weeks at that prestigious spot, and eventually earning us the ironic title of the most-played band in the history of NAC (New Adult Contemporary) category on the radio charts. During 1995, on a trip to Istanbul, Turkey, we agreed to complete our touring commitments for that year, then go on our separate ways. Our final concert together was October 28, 1995 at IMAC in Huntington, NY, one of our home bases for concerts since the earliest days.
