Thanks for your kind words. It is a pleasure working with you again as well. I look forward to growing with our band. With a lot hard work, we will earn our spot with the elite.
Just starting to enjoy your cd; "Satin Doll" is a hit with me for sure, will comment later on the others. But I have to say your live performances this weekend were such a delight. I was excited after your presentation Saturday at the Penn Hills Library, but then was totally blown away while listening to your Cross Cultural Group Sunday. My soul felt the ministry of it. I am looking forward to a cd of this group........WOW!!

Great to be back in touch with you! I will be back in the burgh officially the first week of June. I am looking forward to playing with you again. My Dad is doing well, my daughter will be twenty this year, and my grandson will be three. Funny you leave your home town for seven years and come back a grand father and a little grayer. LOL! I hope all is well there with you, see you soon
