He was cool on king of the hill.

He blows a mean flugel, but I wouldn't want to see him naked.

I love "The Children of Sanchez" I have listened to the whole album over and over and over.

Yes, No or other?

Definitely a YES in concert! Went to several of his shows years ago; glad to see him back around. I agree with Carrie about "Children of Sanchez"; it's mesmerizing!

After all this time his "Feel So Good" makes me feel VERY good!

(I also enjoyed seeing his father selling t-shirts in the lobby! Like I said, this was years and years go!)

Hell yes. Not only great music but what a cool history. Read Timothy Leary's autobiography sometime ( Flashbacks: An Autobiography - 1983). Mangione used to hang out at his place an play. Was involved somewhat in the whole Leary/G. Gordon Liddy thing.

Of all the topics I never expected to see discussed here, Chuck Mangione led the list. *g*

Once I was staying in a hotel in Rochester, NY, which I believe is the ancestral home of the Mangione clan, and discovered that Chuck's brother, Gap Mangione, was pounding the 88's in the cocktail lounge.

Another brush with greatness....
