We’ve Got the Blue Jays
February 23rd, 2025 § Comments Off on We’ve Got the Blue Jays § permalink
Recently. ESP Studios, Buttonville, Ontario, Canada, alumni, Frank Watt, sent me a folder of tracks that were recorded in the studio in the 1980s.
One track was called “Blue Jays.” I had never forgotten the track, but I had forgotten working on it with Mike Bouyea and Dee Long!
Michael was a founding member of the Connecticut band “The Squires.” He wrote and sang their 1966 single “Going All the Way.”
Mike wrote, performed and produced, “We’ve Got the Blues Jays,” with Dee and the Fairlight CMI for the CHUM foundation.” Awesome!
