My best friend and I had the pleasure of going to see Ambrosia as they reformed after all the years, at a small casino in Wisconsin. Joe had moved to Wisconsin, and this small casino was a great place to reunite. They were getting ready to put together what would become the "Classic Hits Live " tour with Gary Wright, Al Stewart, and others. When we got wind of it, no question, we went. It was just Ambrosia on a very small stage and a very small group of fans. Later, we were invited to the green room, and I was asked if I was the one that asked to hear "Drink Of Water"... I was. What followed was some enjoyable years .... going to Joes studio he was building, donating some of our studio mics to the cause, invited to backstage passes to meet people like Edger Winter, Rick Springfield, Cross, Gary Wright, Al Stewart, Bruce Hornsby and others. For the record, every one of them were very, very .. nice and respectable people. At their first apperance at the Taste Of Minnesota, we were driving the band back to the holel after the 4th of July fireworks, and they all agreed, that they couldn't believe the following of fans in Minnesota. As a footnote, the fans lined up to get albums signed, and with smiles and handshakes, Ambrosia spent a good couple hours extra doing it. They are truly an exceptional group of talented musicians. Also, the added members were the same way...special to say the least. Both my close friend and I were never able to cross paths onstage during their hayday, as we also had gigs to do in our band, and just never met up because of it. What an honor it was to sit, talk, share a meal, and help out. The memories are pure gold.

Once there, Joe had to order, because we didn't read or speak Spanish. The food was incredable. After the day was done at the studio, we went ti Joes home and met his wife before going into his music room. This was his personal space with recording gear and so on. In his guitar collection, he had a Hoffner "Beatle bass", and since my buddy had one too .... the conversation between them is a memory all it's own.

This shows how diverse & talented Ambrosia are. And also explains why Alan Parsons who worked on the last 2 Beatles albums & had just mixed Pink Floyd's DSOTM, chose to work with Ambrosia on their debut & follow up album. He had carte blanche in the industry and worked with Ambrosia before they had released an album. That would normally qualify for Name Dropping however in this case it makes a strong statement about Ambrosia and remains true to this day. Thank You For All The Great Music!

At 52, it is nice to get that escapism once in a while. Simply phenomenal talent, one of the first jam bands that paved the way for a lot of other folks.

Some drummers have better chops, some drummers play faster, some drummers are better at polyrhythms but if the #1 priority is to integrate with the music, Burleigh is near the top of the list. He stands out by not calling attention to himself. That is, he plays exactly what the song calls for - no more no less.
