I won't debate the merits of Club Ninja being one big mistake as it ranks
DEAD LAST on my BOC list.  However, I've always said that it's not a bad
album, it's just a bad BOC album.  You see, my standards are so much higher
for BOC than for other groups...

When I was at the Museum, Bolle pulled out a tape and told me that he agreed
with the song selection on ALL the albums EXCEPT ONE.  He said that this song
should have been on AOF instead of Debbie Denise.  I listened to the song,
thinking it was strangely familiar.  They hit the chorus and I realized what
the song was.  As I listened, I had to agree with Bolle.  The song
performance would have fit AOF precisely!  (IMHO)  And it would have made AOF
a stronger album.  Alas, it wasn't to be...

I don't recall right off who wrote the song, but I believe it's one of
Albert's.  The name of the song?  It's ...

Well, what the hell.  Might be fun to speculate!  Consequently, I don't know
that I want to say just yet.  And BTW, they did put this song on a subsequent
album.  The song arrangement was very different (and weaker?) on the
subsequent album.

Any guesses?

PS  Hey Al!  No guesses from you!!  (Yet)
