Gamelan - Fred Lessing / Day Moon Demo

I wrote this for my Mom on the day of her passing.
Ray Davis was gracious enough to provide the vocals.

Take Her Home Your Good And Faithful Servant

A quick play on the new Reeds and Tines pre

DFB with new Tines and Reeds Pre-Amp

Faith Under Construction

I seem to re-record this song every year! .. Last year
was piano .. this year is back on the Rhodes with
a wonderful pre-amp from Tines-and-Reeds in Germany.
I got their Mark II Stage pre-amp and it was easy
to install and quite a remarkable sonic upgrade. It picks
up tones, mechanics and harmonics up with such
clarity I've been replaying all of my Rhodes material :-)
It has to stop at some point :-)

James Baldwin - Bed

I piano improv piece that Paulo Chagas (from Italy)
played his sax on. It's a very contemplative piece.

Gift Of Grace

This is my class project for my music theory class .. notated and voiced in MuseScore

December Sojourn

I've been taking a piano class and have been studying Bill Evans .. this popped out while working on some of his pieces.

I wrote it just as the rains started again here in Monterey. Hence the name.

April Showers

This is a cover of James Taylor's "Fire and Rain". I started to play it on guitar and then decided there were things the Rhodes could bring out on this song.

It's one of my favorite JT tunes .. haunting, elegant .. I hope I do it justice.

Fire and Rain (Rhodes Edition)

i wrote this for my wife Creda .. seems appropriate on
Valentine's Day.

Then I Knew

There just aren't that many great penis songs. Eric 
Idle's "Penis Song" from "Meaning of Life" is certainly
great, but old. 

This one is a lounge/nightclub variety.

Enjoy

I've Got A Penis

Piece I wrote and played by Ed Mclaughlin (bass), Charley Langer (sax and horns), Mike Morris (guitar), Frank Basile (drums) and me (Rhodes). Another "almost finished" piece.

530 Friday

An etude .. I split the keyboard L/H and play bass left and piano right.... sometimes they come out rather nicely .. as I think this one did.

Over And Over

A collaboration I did with an SJSU student, Sowande Lawson-Brown. I think he's got a fabulous voice and wasted it going into criminal justice :-)

But he did a great job .. recorded two songs with him. Very talented.

On Guitar .. the remarkable Mark Morris ..  another level. several levels.

I wrote this song as kind of an R&B "round". The core progression is intended to be simple and layer-able. Mark found a wonderful groove in there.

My LH bass was inspired by key and string bassists .. Thomas Dolby is such a great synth bassist .. string .. there's some Prince in there ..
