Thankyou everyone for your patience with me getting my songs uploaded here. After finally re-assimilating my original analog recording equipment, upgrading it or replacing key components, I finally have my 1980[s style old analog studio up and running. Once I was able to verify the integrity of the songs on my analog tape, I was able to transfer many of the songs to a digital workstation in the digital studio of my good friend, Rob McHale. Rob was gracious and generous enough to devote several hours of his time, and use of his facilities to get these songs converted to *.mp3 and *.cda format. This generous act has put me in the position to now upload my tunes, which, as I hope you have heard by now, I have done! So Woo Hoo! . ....
I will be working this Spring and Summer on new material, and plan to be releasing a new CD this fall. Stay tuned for more updates. I will be sure to keep everyone abreast of my progress. hopefuly ....
If you have heard me live and heard my tunes on this page, you may have noticed a few differences between the live version and the legacy recordings of the same songs. One is that I no longer have a flute accompaniment. Jeff's presence on the songs that he performed with me made a significant impact, and added spacial impression, and dynamics to this tunes. Since I don't know what has happenned to Jeff, I am looking for a flute player who would be interested in performing some accompaniment on some of my tunes. I am also interested in working with a female vocalist, to either perfomr some duets, or who feels comforable singing the lead solo.....
In addition to perfotming my solos stuff, I am presently undertaking 2 additional musical projects. One is aproject that I have been planning for a long time -- a progressive/alternative/experiemntal rock and roll bans, which is called Cosmic Kudzu. I am still looking for other musicians interested n being a part of this project -- specifically, a drummer, bass player, a keyboard player, another guitarist, and perhaps a singer (a female singer would be a plus!). ips . If you are interested, please visit http://www.myspace.com/cosmickudzu. o:p>..
The other project is the White Pine Orchestra, which will hopefully be performing some originals in a contemporary folk/bluegrass/psychobilly style.
