great vibe.!!  nice energy.. wonderful track.!!  8-)

Very interesting rhythm pattern good solo Johnny Lyrics etc.

It has been a pure pleasure to play and record with the super talented Justin Valente @justin-valente. Justin lives and breathes guitar and has such a deep and wonderful understanding of blues, blues history, and its evolution and influence in rock. And Justin uses that to turn out some of the consistently baddest guitar playing on SoundCloud. Capital B. Almost every day. So impressive.

When I found him here on SC I was instantly attracted to both his sound and conception. Somewhere that I would love to be if I played the electric guitar. A ton of electricity in his playing, raw energy, and a great understanding of navigating through the changes. If you haven't already, click to go to Justin's SC gallery and follow him. He is a serious student, and makes everything we do sound better.

Here's a collection of about 10 tunes we have recorded together....some classic tunes as well as originals. Very proud of these recordings.

Thanks Justin. So many of you have liked, commented and often shared our music - thanks for such passion, and for helping keep the blues inspired music here on SC alive and thriving. Several other of my favorite musicians here on SoundCloud are on these recordings as well - Tom Adams, Joe Bongiovanni, Ian Tait and Johnny Pugh.

To quote Bob Marley, "We're Jammin...."

Jamming with Justin Valente

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....

Funk And Burn - With Joe Bongiovanni and Justin Valente guitars and Matt Criscuolo alto sax

Bringing a soulful sound to SoundCloud with this one.  Lifetime recording artist, soul vocalist, saxophone and harmonica player Johnny Pugh sits in with blues guitarist extraordinaire Justin Valente and me on an emotional Ray Charles type slow jam.  What a wonderful surprise to hear Johnny's beautiful harp lines, which fit perfectly with Justin's raw electric blues energy.  Real proud of this one, as it captures the heart and spirit of why we all love SoundCloud.   Check out Johnny and Justin's music here - you will love their playing.  Thanks for listening.

Soul Brothers - with Justin Valente guitar and Johnny Pugh blues harp and horns

A swinging shuffle with the outstanding Justin Valente on electric guitar.  Justin developed this 12 bar blues after listening to one of his favorite bands, Gov't Mule.  If you are into serious blues and electric guitar, you gotta check out more of New Jersey's own Justin Valente.  He's all over SoundCloud and loves to create and share new music almost every day.  Gotta love his complete understanding of how to play some serious blues - Gov't Mule style here!  Thanks as always for taking the time to listen and to comment.  Means a lot.

Mule's Blues - with Justin Valente / guitar

Created this Latin Jazz Rock tune with a very percussive latin groove over classic jazz changes.  Justin as always does a fantastic job with the guitar, helping anchor the mood while developing a fine solo to complement the salsa groove.  Put on your dancing shoes...

This track is a cover of Freddie King's Palace of the King.  It was great fun to put all of this together and was a big challenge because we have an international cast (US, Netherlands and Spain), so many tracks to mix, and this is a really ambitious song.  I am happy with the outcome and really grateful for the wonderful teamwork on this.  Thanks to Johnny, Jamie and Debbie - a better group of people to work with you will not find :)
