The Huntingtons
The Huntingtons debut album "Sweet Sixteen" was released in 1996 by Flying Tart Records. A few months later, their first attempt at recording Ramones covers, entitled "Rocket to Ramonia" saw limited release via the Burnt Toast Vinyl label. At this point the band added a second guitarist, Tom Rehbein (later in Small Towns Burn a Little Slower). After working with producer Mass Giorgini for the band's next album, "Fun and Games", Tom was replaced by Brad Ber. After the album's release in mid-1997, the band started touring and gained a cult following. Their big break came in 1998, when they signed to Tooth & Nail Records and released "High School Rock".
James Morrison (jazz musician)
The group issued their debut album, "A Night in Tunisia", in 1984, on ABC Records as part of the series: Don Burrows Collection. The title track is a jazz standard by Dizzy Gillespie; another track, "Burrows Bossa", was written by Morrison. Also that year he backed Burrows on "Burrows at the Winery", providing trumpet, slide trumpet, trombone, and flugelhorn. The album had been recorded live at Rothbury Estate Winery. Morrison Brothers Big Bad Band used the same venue for their album, "Live at the Winery", Foster noted that it "features some of Australia's best playing some great tunes, [and] proves yet again the power, the presence, that can be generated by Australians playing jazz".
