The first tune is recorded with the new Big Band I'm playin' with up here in the Steel City-- The Jazz Conspiracy--

I've added a few sweet tracks of my jazz trio down at the bottom: it features Mark Strickland and Vince Tagliere. Big props to Mark for the good sound quality!

Dazed and Confused was sung with the Circus of Saints (www.circusofsaints.com): arranged by bassist Billy Sokol, Nick Costa on drums, and John Dierker on sax.

"Indian Summer" is all Miles Belknap on the gui-tar. "The Last Nostalgic Wait" is his tune, covered.

I had a little help from my friends on The Sea and She (Miles Belknap on acoustic guitar, Glenn Trojnar on harmonica). The words to "Sigmund Says" are by Tim Forrest.

I done it all the rest of the tunes by my lonesome (vox, clarinet/keys/guitar/body-slappin' percussion, assorted synth) basement studio style. The website player tends to make tracks sound a little...crunchy...so I encourage you guys to download the songs if you like them.

("Place Your Bets" was done for a casino audience, so it's a bit goofier than my other tunes. I leave it for you to judge).

Comments via email always welcome. Collaborators even more so.

Wow. I am uncharacteristically lost for words. This is stunning. You need to meet Matt Lewis. Works at APUS in Charles Town, just above the United Bank. He's genius, so are you. For you guys not to jam would be a tragedy. And I hate tragedy. Also, talk to Doug at Dish. I'm sure he'll book you. Loves Jazz. And let me know; I'd like to be there. I'm getting you those Jacques Brel discs. That is all. Jun 22
