Elvin Jones for the triplet, Marcello Mastroianni for the style, my Godfather, Ted Maier for being a stand-up role model, El Cordobes for his courage, Edgar Allen Poe for showing me there can be art in hell.
After attending the college of Blue Note & Impulse Records, I studied polyrhythmic concepts in New York with Barry Altschul, the drummer in Chick Corea's Circle. Lived in Hollywood CA, Oklahoma City, Atlanta, Miami, Minneapolis, and played in house bands for 5 years on cruise ships. My CD "Long Ago" featuring bassist Anthony Cox & pianist Bill Carrothers, has garnered luminous reviews in the national press, but not a dime for car repair. I've played on 7 European tours and still get stuck in traffic going across town. Shared a few choruses with Barney Kessel, Roseanna Vitro, Manfredo Fest, Sheila Jordan, Terry Gibbs, Gary Foster, Kim Richmond, Vinny Golia, JoAnne Brackeen, Ernie Watts, Wayne Johnson, Karrin Allyson, Kenny Werner, Howard Levy, Toots Thielmans, Avashai Cohen, Giacomo Aula, and Sarah Vaughan.
Hey Ep, justa thinkin' bout watchin' some o thet there World Series on the TV this week. I know ya don't drink, but if ya mosey over ta the ranch, I kin wrangle up a sasparilla for ya - you ain't rootin' fer them Yankees, is ya?
Hey Jay, We had a very musical and well attended gig last night. Terry counted 6 worldclass bassists in the house other than himself. How did the stars line up with Firebell? Perfect as well I bet! SJ
Honored, Jay- as I have mentioned, you have already have my admiration for your playing and for your latest CD. (Watch J.com's music section next week)
