| PADDY CASEY March 5th, 2006, Los Angeles: A cabal of film and record company executives are at the annual US-Ireland Alliance pre-Oscar party in Los Angeles. Live music is provided by Paddy Casey who only plays for ten minutes. In the audience is Larry Hamby, the man who did the A&R work on the best selling album of all time, Michael Jackson's Thriller. Larry wants to work with Paddy, so much so he insists the young Dubliner records his new album in Los Angeles. Paddy says he'll get back to him. After the massive success of Paddy's last album, Living, which went eleven times platinum in Ireland with sales in excess of 175,000 Paddy knew he wanted to break fresh ground on his third album. He was thinking Sly and the Family Stone meets Simon & Garfunkel. The blueprint for songs that would have blues licks, funky wah-wah guitars and Stax-style trumpets. Songs that would sit easily aside the more poignant songs full of personal meaning he already had. He thought of what he had, thought again of Los Angeles and thought "Why not?"
