Hey, Ben, thanks for the add! Love your sound! Nice playin'! And I enjoyed your rant :-) on religion, Vonnegut, etc. You mentioned Simpsons... the artwork you see below is by Cher's hubby (and Simpsons animator) Ben Lane, and it's for our lullaby cd. We loved working with some great jazz players (as well as symphony players) on this project.
Glad to have you as a Friend!

This Where's Ilva material is great. Did I say that here already? I meant to. Before I Go - gets me each time.
It's taking me a while to get around to things but I'll try to find a nice recording of 'Tune' - and I'll get that cd to you. Peace - Kenny

A confession : I don't like the drummers, but you are an exception, first because in the photo you are not drumming but kniting, and second because after hear you, you are always not drumming but embroiding very fine !
Thank you for this nice invitation, wishes from Geneva,
C.
