Monkey Bidness Music

In 2003 and 2004, Billy Cole and Jere Ellis made the trip down to Fairhope, AL, to attend a party thrown by an old friend of theirs from Jere's college days. His house overlooks the bay and is a great place for a party.  John joined them in 2004, when they jammed with their host. In 2003, however, this quartet played. Jere was smart enough to capture them, first on VHS tape and then he stripped the audio off the tapes for the first Bidnessmen website.  They broke up shortly after this party, as one or more of them moved from Fairhope to Nashville to try their hand as sidemen. This night, they were Kung Fu Mama.
