I just got a Renaud garciz-Fons' Arcoluz. What an incredible player. He has an incredibly bright tone that not everyone will like, but his technique and musicality are incredible.

Increasingly, my 'pod is filling up with songs that I need to learn for performances.... I received some MP3s on Sunday morning for two new tunes from Amy Hanaiali'i.. for an opening act that we did that evening (with EW&F). Since it was a kind of big deal, I was glad to be able to listen to them while going about my business during the morning. Today, I have it loaded with tunes for a Willie Nelson recording that's happening in later this morning. I find the little thing indispensable as a scratchpad for last minute projects like these.

Default New (for me) cd

APpalachian Journey (Meyer, O'Conner, Ma) - Just bought it last week - I love this stuff.

Hey, Marcus - Where can I hear some of your playing? I've never heard of the Hawaiian singer you keep mentioning, but I'd like to give the group a listen . . .

Yes! Have you heard 'Uncommon Ritual'?

Hey Stan, thanks for asking. Amy may have some tracks with me on her site, not sure.

If you can find any tracks with Tom Conway or our group Gypsy Pacific, that might be something different for you to check out. Our websites are most likely down for revamping at the moment, but I could send you some CDs if you want to check it out. You might eventually want to check out the stuff we did with Willie Nelson this morning.... we had a blast! We'll go back in and finish the raw tracks over the next few days, and then pull it together while he's touring. I'll keep you posted if you're interested.

Yeah, I think Willie's great. Did you get to hang out with him, or was it strictly "professional"?

I'll check out those links later. Thanks. . .

We had a good hang.... Willie is really easy to work with, but he knows what he wants. I've known him for quite awhile, and we kept talking about doing a project together, but we finally got around to it this week. We'll be finishing up on Saturday, most likely.

I guess he likes me. I sure like him. Maybe the most easygoing guy in the biz.

I dug up some of my old cassette tapes to listen to in the car. I found Joe Henderson 'Page One' and a tape that a drummer named Billy Bowker made for me a long time ago that's all Wynton Kelly with various other musicians including PC, Kenny Burrell, Donald Byrd and others. There is a lot more, I just have to re-unbury them out of my mom's garage.

I've been listening to John Patitucci's Communion and some John Mayer Trio stuff with Mayer, Pino Palladino, & Steve Jordan.
