InfluencesMy father. Also a guitarist and a percussionist.

Wes Montgomery
Joe Pass
George Benson
Pat Martino

A mutual camaraderie borne of the music with musicians Darryl Anders, Cedric Givens, Cheikh Ndoye and many others. This camaraderie began when Darryl Anders and I were young musical prodigies actively involved in the music department at our neighbor-hood high school.

We were classmates and also best of friends, and whenever we were together it was always about the music.

Also Darryl was instrumental in introducing me to another young lion that later became a dear friend and music partner Cedric Givens.

Cedric and Darryl helped me sharpen my understanding of the Funk music of our time.

Darryl probably remembers (all to vividly) the influence that my father had on the both of us. My father had an enthusiasm for all good music. His enthusiasm greatly influenced our musical development. It provided the foundation that encouraged both Darryl and myself to persevere and chase our musical dreams.

Guitarist Roberto Tyson
Roberto Tyson was born in Cuba, reared in Puerto Rico and New York City. Roberto, a prodigy in his early youth, was schooled in the ways of the grand masters of jazz guitar and played along side his father, also a guitarist, with premier musicians of the time. Young Roberto developed a reputation as one of the best players around. Today, Roberto brings a Latin, Caribbean and traditional jazz influence to the richness of his music.

Roberto,

Your guitar sounds completely 1960s in tone which is very difficult to get in most studios today.... I still can't believe I got this tone down without using tape!. My Roland amp customization worked like a charm with your guitar!..and the Neumann tube M149+the ribbon AEA R84 through The LA4s and the Buzzaudio MA2-2.

The mic positioning and patterns I will keep secret for now anyway..ah..ah

Today I received the UA LA-610SE all tube mic pre and compressor to be added to the rest of the vintage gear alongside the amazing Buzzaudio MA-2.2. which I used on our live session.



Have fun!

Ney
