notes
This is the second full-length JunkieRush CD, which was released in February 2003. The lineup consists of Bobby Koelble on vocals and guitar, Aaron O'Riley on bass, Abdias Garcia on drums and vocals and Jorge Cesar "Ito" Colon on percussion.
"This CD was a major step forward for us" says Bobby. "The addition of Abdias and Ito was huge. They're from Puerto Rico so their knowledge of Latin rhythms really helped expand our sound. Plus, Abe brings so much to the table including his vocals and knowledge of reggae."
The CD features guest artists including Grammy nominated saxophonist Sam Rivers as well as Sisaundra Lewis (vocals)
Doug Spoonamore (sax) Mike Iapachino (trumpet) and Pat Gullotta (trombone).
The CD showcases the bands ability to shift effortlessly between heavy rock, funk, reggae and Latin jazz elements.
Bobby says: "We've always had the attitude that the song comes first. We don't try to force styles where they don't fit; the song dictates what happens and it always ends up sounding like us".

Pure genius!
author: DavidThese guys are GOOD!. I've seen them in concert, I own all their CD's. This disc is fantastic from start to finish. High Water Rise could be the best song on the album. Sublime, 311, even Marley would be lucky to have a single album this good.
well put together
author: B Moneyi like every song. by god its good music
Awesome Fusion of Music Styles!
author: My NguyenI really like number 6 on this CD, but the overall style of the CD is very different and cool.
The Most Rocking Band Of ALL TIME!!!
author: Big Daddy RobThis CD gives every jUNKie fan hope. I cant drive down the road without listening to them. They are this biggest thing in my radio. YOU ROCK!
The best band just happens to be local.
author: BryanThis music not only is great, but it renews one's faith in music. Faith that cookie cutter bands propagated by large revenue driven record labels aren't are only listening option. That creative, passionate, talented musicians still exist. Listen and enjoy, because variety is the spice of life...
The CD kicks ass
author: CAUnlike anything I've ever heard.
They advertise JR II when the cd is actually their first!
