A collection of the many tunes that world class Ohio blues axeman Joe Bongiovanni  https://soundcloud.com/joe-bongiovanni and I have recorded together on SoundCloud.  Joe is one of the most soulful guitar players I have ever ever heard - anywhere - and he brings that inner passion and sensitivity to every recording.  His tone, his phrasing and his interpretation are envious.  In fact, for the second year in a row, Joe has earned a finals spot playing in the World Championship of Blues Guitar in Memphis, Tennessee.  Best of luck there Joe.  Wish I could be with you there.

Thanks for being here to soothe the Soul, Joe.  Also included in this collection is the exceptional blues guitarist Justin Valente https://soundcloud.com/justin-valente who we team up with on the super funky Funk and Burn.  Check out their wonderful SoundCloud galleries:

Jammin' with Joe Bongiovanni

Blues for ross by Joe bongiovanni and Jamie rhind

Loved playing this slow blues with Joe.  He's a real master.  Enjoy the smooth sounds...

I Got The Blues - with Joe Bongiovanni / guitar

What fun pulling this together with three serious musicians.  You probably know Joe Bongiovanni and Justin Valente's awesome blues oriented guitars, and they stretch out here on this funk / soul / fusion groove.  Burning it up they are.  And joining us on Alto Sax is recording artist Matt Criscuolo.  Look for him at mattcriscuolo.com.  These guys just play their ass off here.  Started with an internet fusion loop, I added many keyboard lines to funk it up to the max, and we added these pros.  Joe takes the opening solos for the first four minutes, Justin follows, and we finish with all the guys trading off.  So much energy.  Positive energy here.  Put this on and relax.  Hope you enjoy the entire tune - an extended play jam.  Damn this is burning.... Thanks for listening.  The guys would love your thoughts....

You'll Always Shine

Bejeebers
I’m wasted beyond time
I’m wasted beyond rhyme
Don Julio and lime

I want you
I think you’re really fine
I want to make you mine
Til the end of times

I need you
I need you like a hit
Of some addictive shit
That I can’t quit

I want you
I want the things you do
I want your magic brew
I love you

Chasing Stars

And Yet We Keep Boxin'

I was looking at old photos of a town gathering in the 1800s for a lynching. I was struck at the carnival atmosphere, the presence of all kinds of people, women and children. This is disturbing but very real and it is NOT confined to America,the South but instead is a sad global problem with religions and "God". Too often I think religions are excuses to commit some of the most awful  human atrocities . Religions,like leader cults(nazis/emperorsetc), seem to blind masses into justifying the slaughter  of the enemy of the day. God in most religions preached tolerance/forgiveness/inclusion and yet these fundamental principles are conveniently forgotten when it comes time to fulfill some self serving goal, monetary/territorial or ego. I wish I knew why

lyrics
glowing yellow sun
clear bright blue sky
leaves are dancing in the wind

sherriff and the barber
the doctor and the lawyer 
all the townspeople are there

just to meet and greet
and to chat about
the news and their hopes and fears

The children all are there
dressed up in their best
blue eyes and many happy smiles

then the time arrives
the crowd all turn their head
they march the black man to the tree

a noose slips round his neck
they pull him up on high
so his legs can swing free

there's heard a horrible crack
that splits the morning air
the children look up and they stare
as his legs they shake
and his body quivers
until he hangs there still and limp

then the children turn around and finish up their games 
on this bright and sunny day

now it's time to go
they hear the parents say
off to church to learn to pray

"praise God??really??

praise God??what are you thinking?

ready to die

WATCHERS FROM ABOVE

It's been too long since Ohio bluesman Joe Bongiovanni and I recorded a tune together, so I wrote this one with Joe's soulful and lyrical playing in mind.  Joe has several times been a finalist at the World Championship of Blues Guitar, and it sure shows in his beautiful playing.  This is our 13th tune together, and I'm really proud of what we have recorded.  Check out Joe's wonderful gallery at https://soundcloud.com/joe-bongiovanni

The photo is one of my favorite sunsets I have ever shot, in beautiful East Hampton, NY.  

And for those interested, I have just released Barcelona and I Believe, 2 CDs of my own music and a few jazz standards.   SoundCloud's Dan van den Berg and Al Schulman wrote the liner notes for them.  Here's a link if you are interested in checking them out - https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/barcelona/id1071251143

Thanks as always for your generous time listening, your comments and feedback and your shares.
