This is a song about lucid dreaming, creative visualization, astral projection, all that cool stuff...
This song went to # 1 on the Adult Comtemporary Pop charts. It is also the first song of mine that Kate Bush ever heard and the song that got me featured in Bassplayer magazine with Prince on the cover.
This song went to # 3 on the Acoustic Rock charts. The song is meant to illustrate that chivalry is NOT dead and it's chock fulla hooks. It WILL stay in your head.
For some reason, this particular song really touches people as I have witness many a listener moved to tears.
A # 1 Latin Pop/Balada song on SoundClick, it broke my heart to write this. Originally written for her ears only, I decided to share it with any die-hard romantics out there.
This song has an 'Island' feel. What Island ?... I'm not sure. You tell ME.
This is a song about a trip my friend Krysia took me on. A decidedly Pink Floyd/Beatles influenced song because to keep it real, it could be no other way. Warning : You could get addicted to this song.
' Your mind is a wasteland, but your body is a miracle...' One listener said, 'This line speaks volumes. Its complimentary, concerned, appreciative, motivational and condescending all at one time.' * I wasn't trying to be condescending *
A #3 song on the Adult Comtemporary charts, it is musically influenced by Joni Mitchell & Peter Gabriel and was written for Carrie Hamilton, my former musical partner, close friend and late daughter of Carol Burnett.
With lyrics in English & Spanish, I thank Nancy Wilson (Heart) for the intro. She said I could use it so it's cool. Plus, she ripped it from Paul Simon anyway.
This is a 'new conscious' rock song I wrote & produced for Dirty Messenger. This MAY be the best thing I have ever done.
This is probably the most subliminal sonic paranormal spiritual journey you can take between your ears. This song IS a drug. Enjoy the trip.
This song went to # 2 on the Acoustic Vocal charts. A beautiful 12 string acoustic guitar was delivered to the studio and I wrote this song right outta the box. Cocteau Twins meets The Dream Academy. Very lush & metaphysical.
This is what it is and it works. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgSMOewsjeY
A # 2 song on the Instrumental Rock charts, if Miles Davis had jammed w/ The Pretenders in 1981, it would have sounded like this. Listen for the 'Honeyman' tone, specifically.
If Peter Gabriel & Tony Levin had written a track for Miles Davis, if may have sounded something like this.
This song is for someone special...whoever she turns out to be. Musically speaking, if Jaco & Miles ever did a duet, it might sound a lot like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYgZFzUBX8I
This is the first production after setting up shop in New York. It was made to be played LOUD.
