Album Notes

My first CD as a leader, Mooin' is a swinging, bluesy, jazz recording featuring vibes, guitar, piano, bass and drums. All the original material and the arrangements of standards are mine. The record includes a 7/4 version of 'How Insensitive', a jazz waltz arrangement of the Lennon/McCartney 'Nowhere Man' and a solo vibes version of 'Moonlight in Vermont'. The musicians are myself playing vibes, my Berklee colleagues Mitch Seidman-guitar and the great Joe Hunt-drums, and Boston swingers Chris Taylor-piano and John Turner-bass. It was recorded in 1997. 'Hot and Dry' was recorded in 2002 and 'Hat Trick' in 2009.
