Coincidentally, heard "Flyin' High" by Baja Marimba Band on a comp the other day, very tasty blend of flute/marimba(obvi)/bah-bah-bah vocals.
I think he got special thanks for helping with the horn arrangements but he actually had to decline as he was too busy with Danny Elfman film work and Boingo was still active. He regretted that move.
Dennis Dragon, may he Rock In Perpetuity!
Bascha's vocals in Speed Bumps really reminded me of the band No Doubt, predating them by over a decade.
Also had the Baja Marimba band albums.
At one point Herb was about to sign a band I was in called Speed Bumps...around 1982. He actually had David Anderle produce some sessions with us along side Dennis Dragon. A beach Boy's connection.
As a kid, I dug A Taste Of Honey and Third Man Theme, and really really dug the Whipped Cream cover.
