C'mon Hell, be flexible! ;~) But to support your case, Steely Dan's latest would be considered a comeback due to their ridiculously long absence, so both definitions apply, I think...

But even though he didn't do all the writing, the cd's got his stinging stamp all over it, and like you say it IS officially a Santana record. And as Santana's never been a vocalist anyway, it sort of puts him in a bit of a different category. So, the bottom line is...we agree!? :~) Bob NP: Billy Bragg, "The Few"
