Album Notes

THIS ALBUM IS BEING RE-RELEASED-- NEW REMASTERED SOUND!!
AVAILABLE SOON

Mike Ricciardi-Songwriter-He made it all happen, and makes magic out of words and music, a gift from God. Mike is a member of ASCAP and has had four of his major musicals (co-written with Randy Ames and Eddy Magee Clemet and one with J. Eric Scmidt) produced on the professional stage. His musical "THE INVITATION" was the first original musical to be broadcast over fifty public radio stations.

MIKE has written songs for the classic Golden Books series for interactive CD's and just about every other genre you can think of. He is now writing and preparing his newest CD "MILES TO GO" with the new singing sensation Westbrook & Snyder.

The new CD will feature some sensational new songs and some new singing discoveries including JOSHUA KRANZ and RACHEL FIELD who join talents in two great new songs. One is a tribute to the spirit of the American People following the tragedy of September 11th called "WE ARE DIFFERENT NOW" and the other is a tribute to the late great World Trade Center in a song that celebrates her legendary staus and what she meant to the citizens of New York City

In HIGHWAY TO A DREAM vocalist TONY WESTBROOK is the Voice of Perfection for the New Millenium...Aftrt all, he's been singing all of his life in the PAST millenium...here's to pursuing a dream.

TIM DORAN Composer, Arranger,Conductor and Accompanist
-He brings it all to life, every time he touches the keyboard. From arranging and conducting at Warner Bros, to arranging and playing for churches, schools, and in the studio, he lets the music flow, from the heart, to the heart.

Tim has the distinction of being the last accompanist to play "God Bless America" for an ailing Kate Smith in 1976 for a celebrated Bicentenial celebration. She retired soon afterwards and never performed again before her death in 1986

Tony has performed in musicals, nightclubs, variety shows, fundraisers, benefits..anywhere he can sing!

Some songs are funny, some are sad, but all are uplifting and beautiful..for they all come from another source.from the heart...and now they come to you....so enjoy, relax,
AND DON'T BE AFRAID TO HANG ON TO A DREAM

The joint effort of these men are combined with co-writing composers J. Eric Schmidt (now the arranger and conductor for John Tesh) Randy Ames, and Eddy Magee Clement. The effort is strengthed with guest vocalists Bill Lewis, who also plays flute, and Gary Mitchell, Together these great talents make "HIGHWAY TO A DREAM" a gift of love, from the heart, from God, and unabashedly...genuine.

Who says Nice guys finish last...NOT!

After all this time, the songs still make me smile.
author: Tony Westbrook
I know I know. I sang the songs. But after all the time that's gone by, they still make me smile. Mike has written some wonderful songs about dreaming, hope, love, and caring. When my nephew gets a bit older I will give him a copy of this CD. Maybe it will inspire him to sing like his Uncle Tony.

author: Walter E. Miller, Editor Song City
Original songs making up an entire CD can sometimes be very uneven. A rose or two between the thorns. But Highway To A Dream never disapoints you. It presents soaring melodies and memorable and catchy lyrics. Some of these songs are bound to be standards and out right classics. There is real structure here and the prosidy between story, structure, melody and arrangement seems to be really harmonious. My favorite is "Fly Me Home For Christmas" a real tear jerker. But better listen to "Littleton and Columbine" and "Wherever You Go There ou Are" You'll be humming the tune home for a long time to come. There are some wonderful musical moments here and outright praise needs to be extended to Mr. Ricciardi, Mr. Westbrook and especially Tim Doran. Where have these guys ben hiding? BRAVO!!!!

Profundity isn't always easy to swallow, but this CD sugar-spoons it to you, lyric by lyric, wholesome note after wholesome note. A nice mix of comfortable folk and edgy pop. Tony Westbrook is sincere, talented and timeless.

Melodic, Lyrical and Vocal Symmetry
author: Rick Halsne
Rarely does one find such illuminary lyrics, music and talent in such symphonic harmony. The collaboration of artists Mike Ricciardi, Tony Westbrook, and Tim Doran stir the soul and allow it to take wing. These songs full of passion, compassion, and hope, and are timeless!
