Artists I Like

Andrew Clark
Columnist for Saxophone magazine and excellent rock sax player

Bob Mintzer
Yet another great sax player, and arranger

Branford Marsalis
Branfords AWESOME site. Not only a great saxman, but an awesome site he has there.

Dave Koz
Ok so he can be a bit on the modern schmaltz side, but he does it with a great deal of competance, and check out his "Off The Beaten Path" album, it's a really cool organic fusion of jazz and western/country/bluesy styles.

Herbie Hancock
Never one thing or another, just the master, and the sage. It's Herbie, what more can one say.

Mike Brecker
The late great master tenor player of the last 30 years. One of my big influences. You name it he can play it.

The Yellow Jackets
Consitently pushing the envelope, but still accessable to listeners of even the simplest tastes. Not to mention one really cool web site.

Friends

Rober K. Wolf
One heck-of-a songwriter.

Health and Wellbeing

Herbal Nutrition
An excellent source of good health and nutrition products.

People I've Played With

Christie's EX — The Ultimate Billy Joel Tribute Band

The name says it all. It's music we love, and love making.

Hal Newman and the Mystics of Time
Named for a historic Mobile Mardi Gras society, The Mystics of Time are rooted in the deep south traditions of Gulf Coast R&B.

Music City Swing
The newest and gooviest big band in Nashville.
Bringing it too you Old School. (Really old school, like duke and Glenn Miller old school).

Phil Vassar
The man who pegged me with the name, not only is he a great contemporary country singer...but he can sing Billy Joel songs better than any one else alive...except maybe Billy.

SixWire
You HAVE to check these guys out.

I haven't played with them in this configuration—but the core of this group is the same core as the SOD band from the Hard Days days.

This is one truly amazing group, that answers the question, "What happens when you put the best musicians in Nashville together?".

Suzahn

Truly great songwriter, awsome jazz vocalist.

Radio Shows

John Boy and Billy
Leaving you asking every morning, who's a bigger idiot, the ones on the radio, or the one who listens to them.

The Phil Valentine Show
Not always right,  but always entertianing news and commentary you just won't hear anywhere else.  Plus, he has Johnny B., what more could you want on the drive home?
