These eBooks are inspirational messages of hope and freedom.Look for links below where you can purchase our CD One Shining Star, or my latest release DEEPER MEANINGS. You may download songs or purchase DEEPER MEANINGS directly from ITUNES I've been a musician all of my life except before the age of ten I thought I was a baseball player, a pilot, a high flying trapeze artist, a sword fighter, an adventurer, an army man; in short all of those things kids dream of after going to the Saturday afternoon matinees. None of those stuck but playing the guitar sure did. What a passion I've always had for the guitar and for singing. I played professionally during the Seventies and early eighties between NYC and Philadelphia. All during this time I wrote songs but never performed them live. It wasn't until much later beginning in 1995 that my wife JJ (harmonica) and I spent the next seven years playing coffee houses as the band JJ Slim on the left coast between LA and San Diego. Every song I played was an original tune. Out this incredible time we produced a CD ONE SHINING STAR Finally I could play my music and see that it held up just as well as cover tunes. As a songwriter I am relentless. The music flows easily and freely expressing what I feel about most in the moment. Currently I am writing both instrumentals and vocals in my music because in both ways I am able to express the intangible that moves me and makes me who I am. Music is nothing without sharing which is why I love to perform and to have people listen to my music. There are four songs here to listen to and I'll be switching these out regularly to showcase new material and bring to your attention some of those songs I've written throughout the years that I consider timeless. PLEASE GO HERE TO PURCHASE

DEEPER MEANINGS

..
In Deeper Meanings you will find music for contemplation, listening pleasure and to inspire you. Each of the Seventeen Songs in this groove rich Album is a delight to experience.Music is a constant source of meditation for me. All of my songs come out of that deepest part through which we are all connected. This connection is really self defined because in the end no words can really describe it yet the music comes closest to how it feels and that feeling is why I write and why I play.
Thanks for your support

REACH FOR THE SKY

SCREENPLAY NOW AVAILABLE


A young man finds himself caught up in a world of intrigue when he discovers an amazing secret. He sets out to change the world in this warm character driven plot featuring romance, colorful chase scenes, and good old fashioned greed and corruption.


Influences: There are so many great musicians out there. My all time favorite guitarist is Joe Pass followed by Steve Giordano of Philadelphia, George Benson, Pat Martino, Johnny Smith, Alex DiGrassi, Michael Hedges, Ralph Towner to name a few. Singers I am influenced by are Elvis (odd yes but he is definitely in there), Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Al Jarreau, Bobby Caldwell
I am also deeply influenced by the philosophy of New Thought, Kabbalah, Tarot, Zen, Patanjali. All of these tend to filter the songs I write. You write what you are.
The night winds carry sounds softly as if by design. There in the muted light of a crescent moon I begin to play. At first the chords find nowhere to bounce off. The silence does not echo their reply.
Then a single chirp above it all high and cheerful unexpected at once and then as it becomes familiar it blends with the music. Now I can feel each creature tuning in to listen almost as if this single night singer has made it okay for everyone around to be not only a part of the audience but also a part of the performance.

Sounds Like: Al Jarreau, George Benson, Seal, James Taylor

I am writing a visonary opera.

LIFE IS LIVING LOVE .. Jamming Cat Two - Love
..If the stars had eyes they would be yours,
If the moon were a jewel it would be on your finger set inside a golden circle
If the sun could sing it would sing for you.
And if the night could remember it would remember your smile.“Have you ever seen the wind?” The sun asked the moon one day.“Funny now that you mention it no,” The moon answered during one of those times when both the sun and the moon were in the sky together.“Yet we see that the trees sway and dust moves across the desert,” The sun beamed her way as the moon blushed accordingly.“Perhaps because we can see its effects we don’t worry about seeing the cause per se,” The moon in quarter phase winked at the sun as it the moon was setting for the day.“We’ll talk off camera then. I think you are right by the way,” The sun spoke beaming its love as the moon winked out of earth sight during the suns day.Their off camera discussions are most enlightening but are closed to earthbound reporters. Go figure! P
