"You Must be Crazy" is a line from the lyrics to Rico's song "Jungle Beat/Jungle Music". Since the 1990s the song is a central part of his live program and thus also presented on this, his first official life album.

Covertext von Richie Jung a.k.a. Dr. Ring Ding
"... Rico's warm and expressive trombone sound and his solo style has always been highly estimated by fans and musicians, and even now, at the age of sixty, he hasn't stopped recording for innumerable bands and producers all over the world. But most of all, Rico loves to play with his own band which he formed some time ago, comprising some of the most gifted of Jamaica's and England's session and studio-musicians, with a rhythm section that provides a real backbone to the grooving and swinging tunes and a horn section that blows up many storms. This current CD was recorded live in a crowded club in Dortmund, Germany in March '94. While it is sometimes somewhat raw and funky, it is not at all unsophisticated, and as you listen to this fine piece of art, you will quickly feel the special atmosphere that Rico and his band create at all of their gigs - a sure delight for all music lovers ..."
