I missed the concert with Bombay Jazz on the 26th of January. I am a full time Binghamton student and was dismayed to find out only a day after that Bombay Jazz played 2 minutes away from my apartment. Recently I heard them on the radio, and the dj said there was a new cd. I can't find this cd anywhere online, can someone point me in the right direction, or correct me if there is no cd release of their work.
