    I re-recorded with the help of Wahwah Watson, Nick Smith, Doug Webb and Tom Bretchlein, a Chick Corea tune that not too many people know. We used to play it live on tour all over the US. I can't wait to finish the CD:)

    Accepting bass student at the CARVIN stores in Hollywood, Santa Ana or San Diego. If you are too far away you still have the option of doing it on Skype:) The lessons are individual lessons for about one hour. I teach every style for electric and acoustic upright basses. the price is $85 per lesson or $300 for 4 consecutive lessons in a month. If you miss a lesson you have to make it up within the same month with an other day or a 2 hours lesson:)

    Had a ball at Bass Player Live at SIR in Hollywood. The best place to meet all the greatest bass players in the world:) It was great to see Alphonso Johnson, Nathan East, Lee Sklar, Freddy Washington, Bagiti Kumalo Steve Bailey, Verdine White, Brian Bromberg, Marco Mendosa just to name a few and to see Chris Squier perform. It was fantastic:)
