I remember Robert Downey Jr. Having a band of his own and putting out a solo album. I'm going to go look. Good find.

I like these kinds of stories about how people connect and become friends. I'll read it tomorrow, and I'll check out his album. 🙂

His phrasing is good. He blends with the backup singers well. And he looks very comfortable behind a mic.
I had no idea.
The band is superb, too
