Tracks
Just a little FYI, this is NOT the Mike Campbell of Tom Petty/ Heartbreakers fame. However, it is a wonderful recording of a Jazz Vocalist of the same name. Plus, a lot of familiar names behind the scenes.
Singer Mike Campbell’s third album on ITI Records - "Close Enough For Love" is a blend of three recording sessions, which features Tom Garvin on piano, Bob Sheppard, Tom Peterson on tenor, Lanny Morgan on alto, John Heard, Eric Von Essen on bass, Ralph Penland, Peter Donald on drums, Clay Jenkins, Steve Huffsteter on trumpet and flugelhorn, Bruce Paulson on trombone, Dan Sawyer on guitar, and Dave Shank on percussion; duets with pianist Joanne Grauer and two additional tracks produced by the late Tim Hauser. Janis Siegel and Cheryl Bentyne also from Manhattan Transfer sang backup for these tracks and the musicians included Jeff Lorber – keyboards and synth, Ernie Watts - sax solo, Wayne Johnson – guitar, and on percussion Paulino da Costa.
