SEASIDE SAMBA A sketch with potential. :)
MISTY Taking my Ibanez jazz hollow-body guitar for a spin in Garageband on my iMAC. Another short solo guitar piece.
EL PADRINO is just a sketch; no, a scribble on my nylon string guitar. It's my interpretation of the Godfather Theme.... Michael Corleone meets Tony Montana (Scarface). A sit-down, if you will, with wine flowing and the aroma of cuban cigars wafting in the air between the two of them. It's recorded straight-up with all of its pings, pops, sweet and sour notes. Enjoy and/or laugh. It's totally tongue-in-cheek.
PHILARICAN: is a tune by Florida-based bassman, MySpace and Macjam.com member, Hectorious (Hector Rivera). Hector teamed up with fellow Macjam.com member, Karmatoburn, came up with this latin jazz jam and invited me to lay down some guitar work. Hector started out in Philadelphia before moving to Florida at a young age. This number is a tribute to his father; a sentiment I share, as well. Thanks, Hector and Karma, for allowing to be a part of this project!

MUDBUG BOOGIE: features (CT/NY-based) Audiocracy keyboardist (and fellow Macjams member), Tobin James Mueller. Tobin absolutely smokes on the B3 organ. Thanks, T. You're amazing!

CRUISIN' FOR A BLUISIN' and Half Baked Blues features Indianapolis-based jazz pianist and music educator, John Stebbe. I think you'll agree that John has some serious chops. Thanks, John!

ROMANZA-DANZA is a revised sketch with a some experimentation on the bass line and midi percussion.
!SALSA!(YouTube clip):
Cartoonist, Andrew Kaiko, requested to use one of my tunes - my very first recording - for this animated short, which he created while he was a student at the Rhode Island School of Design.
Andrew is quite the prolific artist and graphic novelist. Check out Andrew's work at andrewkaiko.com
