Onko tuo hyväkin levy ja mistä sitä saisi kuultavakseen? Mulla kun on nuo Blacktop-yhtiön levyt, mutta tuosta en ollut kuullutkaan. Enpä ole miestä paljoa kuunnellutkaan sen jälkeen kun kävi Raumalla (n. 2004?).
EDIT:
Linkki levyyn, ja näyttäisi tuolta olevan myynnissäkin:

NOTES:
For The Way It Is - On many tracks, Snooks is accompanied by English expatriate keyboardist Jon Cleary and his Absolute Monster Gentlemen, the rightful inheritors of the Imperial New Orleans funk throne once ruled by the lamented Meters. As Snooks comments at the conclusion of the album's initial song: "That was a good groove there, boy."
Mixed in with the funk and groove and flourishes are ample doses of Snooks' patented wackiness.
