Song information
During 2011 I asked the incdredible Geoff Brown to help me with the Kool and the Gang classic "Summer Madness". I wanted to put a new spin on the song by creating a Jazz Fusion version. Geoff was not familiar with the song so my instructions for the song were:
Start out easy, make it melodic, follow my leads, and at the end let it rip. And he did!
During 2013 I upload the song to Sound Cloud, it was an instant hit! Now with over 42,000 plays, and still averaging about 26 plays per day.
I hope you'll enjoy this wild version of the classic jazz song.

Geoff Brown - Lead Guitar
John Wilson Manley - EP Solo
Steve Caustrita - Drums, Bass, Guitars, Keys.

Always liked this song, and you can already guess your percussion arrangement grabbed me. I'm still a sucka for Latin percussion. Geoff's lead is rather impressive! And the EP is lovely. I, for one, would love to to my spin on it. Email me, Steve.

I think I've seen this Title from you before! But sadly I can't recall! This is great driving music, and writing music! Yes, I write with music on in the background. And this is the type that gives me inspiration especially when I write business documents.
