He did like the Bears and was very impressed by their recent concert in San Diego. I wonder if he has heard the album? I purchased the CD and found it to be a bit too pop oriented for my taste. Considering the people involved on this recording, it is surprisingly non-adventurous. Given that this is a POP album, I was also surprised that the songs were not 'catchy'; I had been led to believe that they were. That's my opinion ... you might like it. I didn't.
