Details:
âBitz of Piecesâ was a true labor of love, as it took almost 20 year to complete and I feel the music has stood the test of time. This was done with my friend Bob Baldwin who was a HUGE help in making this a reality, sharing co-writing and arranging duties.

The variety in the music on this cd is representative of the many different styles of music I was lucky to grow up listening to and playing.

I have always felt that a book is not a book until it has been read, and with this cd the same sentiment could be applied. With the writing, playing and recording of this music, the process is only completed when it is listened to. Thank you and enjoy.

The music on âBitzâ was influenced by the likes of Grover Washington, Jr, Earth Wind & Fire, Jeff Lorber Fusion, George Howard, Spyro Gyra, Andy Narell, Kit Walker, George Duke, Dave Valentin, John Coltrane.
