Album Notes

JO SALLINS
Composer ...quot; Multi-Instrumentalist
Clinician ...quot; Performer
Educator ...quot; Producer

From 1990-2001 Jo composed and arranged some inventive and constantly surprising material that showcases the bass as a role player and as a solo instrument. This is his best work to date as a composer. The following musical journey you are about to take is just a small part of one man's artistic statement.

The "Gold Collection" contains over 15 years of recordings and collaborations from the masterful mind of an ingenious Bassist. His eclectic flair and adventurous abilities in composing and arranging have set the foundation for this intense work of spiritual expressions; showcasing a higher consciousness of "musical being."

In this first of several segments being released, you will experience a moment...a day...a year and beyond, in the life of one who delivers his instrument and his gifted peers to an inspirational level.

The last decade being featured in this collection contains "personal convictions" that have transcended over time to leave you with a sense of "enlightenment."

You now have an opportunity to look into the soul of a truly gifted artist and experience all that he has to offer; an open book of an acclaimed unique character. A composer, collaborator, director, educator, improvisationalist, innovator, philosopher...an artist.
