“I
met the Raz almost 40 years ago and he's been knocking me out ever
since. The truth is in the songs, I don't think he ever had an idea
outside of that idea, so I started playing on his sessions like a lot of
other people, we've done gigs separate and together for all those years
and here we are with our first record deal, thanks Gonzo, hello world,
will anything ever be the same? Sure it will, 'cept you'll have The RAZ
Band to make sure”. - Joey Molland
“Raz
came to some of the Joe Walsh shows and my solo shows I did as far back
as the early 70's...we've been friends ever since...both personally and
musically! We've recorded a ton of GREAT Raz originals and yes...
miracles can happen...in this century... A RECORD DEAL! Well, being a
couple of devoted Beatles fans, we have a similar sense of 'song'... the
RAZ catalogue is massive, current and rockin'! They are ALL fun grooves
and great lyrics!!! It's GREAT to introduce The RAZ Band to the
world!” - Joe Vitale
