John Larsson and John Gowans collaborated on a number of successful Salvation Army musicals, Larsson providing the music to words by Gowans. The song 'Ask! Ask! Ask!' was one of the 'hits' from the musical 'Spirit' and has been used in a variety of contexts since its first appearance in the 1970s. This arrangement was written at the request of Ronnie and Jerome Astwood for the Somerset Community Church Band in Bermuda and is modelled (with apologies!) on the Louis Vega song 'Mambo No.5'.
