I'm extremely proud of all of the CDs I've produced or co-produced and played on over the years.  All of them have received great critical response, with the last three having been honored in Downbeat (the world's top jazz magazine) as among the "Best Albums Of The Year." In a sense, my various CD projects represent my life's work.  To read excerpts from CD reviews, visit the "CD REVIEWS" page at this website.  Below, you can preview the first minute of tracks before purchasing the individual tracks or the entire CD (via PayPal).

I'm particularly proud of this CD--the debut recording of the late, great Linda Hornbuckle. The band had only been together a short while--formed to back Linda after Paul deLay was incarcerated. The consensus was that we needed some original material before going into the studio, but I believed that what we were already doing with cover tunes on our gigs was special and should be documented.

The resultant CD received nothing but critical raves. Many years and many Linda Hornbuckle CDs later, Linda told me that this was her personal favorite among the CDs that she'd recorded.
