Orchestra JB was the alias of Jimmy Brown, a multi-instrumentalist and DJ who, after releasing a few underground dance hits for indie labels, signed to major EastWest Records and in 1991 released Tambourine Fever, an album of trippy, Ecstasy-fueled comedown tracks with nothing too groundbreaking or noteworthy, save the album’s single, “Come Alive.”
"Free Spirit" was one of those underground dance hits sampling Supertramp - "School" though this time on the Rumour Label. Records like this were part and parcel of Saturday evening out. Join the que. Consume the doves you just scored in the car park. Walk up the steps and through the door. Stop. Searched. Free to go. Walk on to the dance floor with the speakers emanating a record like "Free Spirit" and you got that first 'hit' You look at your watch and it's only 10 past 9. Smile knowing you've got another 4 hours plus left.
