Album Notes

Hello,

My new CD, "Decades Past" is out. All the songs are remakes of top 'hit's that were on the billboard charts of the year that the songs were released. Some of the songs you may not recognize, but I know you will enjoy. "Somewhere Over The Rainbow", a pure classic is redone in a 'smooth jazz' style. "Ghetto Child" originally recorded by "The Spinners" in 1973 is given an upbeat feel with background horns and strings with 'sizzling' sax on top. "Venus" recorded by Frankie Avalon in 1959 is done in a soft bossa feel with string and horn arrangements. "Fantasy" by Earth, Wind and Fire is an uptempo number, full of energy with sax on top. "One Day In Your Life" is a beautiful ballad that was originally sung by Michael Jackson in 1975. "Sukiyaki" a Japanese popular song is totally redone as a "smooth jazz" vehicle. These are just 5 of the 13 songs that are on this CD that you will enjoy for years to come. Even if you're not a jazz fan, there is something for everyone's musical palette.

Thanks again for your support of 'Indie' music.

I really enjoyed these covers. You have a real smooth sound to your playing and I just can't get enough! I'm definitely going to be buying a CD. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Some Where Over the Rainbow because I have never heard this type of version of that song. Can't wait for the next CD!
