'BINGO!' was co-produced by Andy Johns (Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Van Halen), with artwork designed by the legendary Storm Thorgerson.

These recordings feature longtime Steve Miller Band member Norton Buffalo, who sadly passed away in 2009.

Wow, I never knew they were originally a blues band. Now that I do it makes sense. :)

I remember when they were the Steve Miller Blues band. A little trivia for those that don't know...Les Paul was Steve's Godfather! He even sang a couple of songs at the private memorial service.


I misread "Godfather" for "Grandfather". :lol:

Oh yeah. Check out my favorite Steve Miller oldie: Your Cash Ain't Nothin' But Trash.

I'll definitely check out the new release. Thanks! 8)

My favorite permutation of the Steve Miller Band was the original five-piece line-up with Boz Skaggs during the "Children Of The Future" era.

I saw this album and almost bought it, but I got a Grand Funk album instead.

I've been listening to this quite a bit and there isn't one clunker on it. Some killer musicians on some of the tunes too.

Norton Buffalo (Harmonica/Vocals)
Joseph Wooten (B3/Piano/Synth/Vocals)
Sonny Charles (Vocals) <---amazing!
Joe Satriani (Guitars)

"in loving memory of Norton Buffalo"
