You can hear, even on this record, Lenny's touch with the keyboard sound - similar to Mojo Men records, but in a much different setting.

I love Lenny's attitude - you can tell he was kinda scared by all of these things, but took the thrill ride anyway, believing he would learn something.

Exactly. And he was with the perfect label to do this... it wouldn't have happened anywhere else.

You can hear that I had lost my voice the day the interview was done. But nothing was going to stop me. Lenny was super busy with calls and other things. I sat in the lobby at Warners for a long time. I was so happy when we finally sat down and we actually listened to all of these records together.
Avatar ☀ 6:53pm
mce1965:

It's so great he allowed the time and effort to do that with you. The results are truly wonderful

He was very self-critical, so I was thrilled that he enjoyed the experience.

Exactly, because you never know how those things are going to go!

I love where Lenny places the strings in this mix, always supportive. The voice is always crisp and focussed.
Avatar ☀ 7:02pm

And the mono and stereos of Triangle are both perfect mixes. One of the few albums of the era where I like both equally.

I think Are You Happy could have been a hit single.

I wonder if we'd look at these records any differently if they had become hits.

Lenny did much better work with the Brothers elsewhere, but this was an interesting track that he recalled out of the others.

And it is unique, because I was the first person to issue his finished mix of the song commercially on a box set that I produced.

This isn't a far leap from things like Gone Dead Train by Randy Newman.
