Hi it’s me CJ again I want to say Happy New Year and I was wondering why doesn’t Barzo do marimba anymore, when was the last time he played one live with u guys as Madness, as well as the organ sounding keyboards and is there any footage or photos from way back a time with the Invaders, and out of curiosity, and respectfully what are your guyses current religions, its a question that has been burning inside for years, yet if u dont want to say i understand and respect that fully and from Pre-Madness to Madness what was the first actual Madness song written I’m wondering because after watching Take It Or Leave It, it would seem that Mistakes was your first song. Well I’ve got to go and thank you again for taking time from your life to actually chat with the many Madness fans around the globe it reall! y means a lot time me. God Bless all u nutties each an evry one
Sincerely,
CJ Irwin

Dear CJ
The marimba got to cumbersome to carry around, so he does it all with synths these days. Religions? I don’t know. Personally nothing much, a bit of everything. “MIstakes” was one for the first songs written, you are right.
