Steve calls me his RI 'brother' and calls Randy his Florida 'brother' ...
Well, his 'brothers' collaborated on this great Michael Frank's song ...
I laid down the track just using the 'Cool Latin Bossa' (if I remember that right) and a couple of multi pads, and did the vocal over it ... I then sent it to Randy who worked his saxophone magic and there you have it ...
I have to give a giant THANK YOU to Randy, because his playing made all the difference in the world to this recording ...

Hey my brother's Randy and Tony! Loved with the sneak preview I got last night then again this morning. Excellent work, kudos to you both. My wife also loved it, I played it back for her while we were sitting on our golf under the shade of a tree near our local coffee shop while we sipped Cappuccinos. cool smile

One of my all time favorite artists is John Klemmer (Touch) and I would listen to the "Touch" album over and over again. This composition weighs in at equal to the quality of John Klemmer's best recording.... The vibe of the tune, creates an incredible mood and spirituality for me to relax and experience my special mental sanctuary.

This is a huge composition/rendition of a tune and is exceptionally well done. I absolutely loved the tune and the musicianship is second to none. Very Very well done. It touches my inner spirituality.

Thank you.

Hi Tony and Brother Steve! Yep, it was a fun collaboration with my northern Bro! Tony did a super job with the Korg on that song - perfect style and pads! And the vocal was "right on"! So it was a fun project for me to add a little icing to his cake.

Thanks also Tony for giving me the "kick" I needed to get off my duff and get the recording stuff working again. Got me a new mic and had a blast getting it cooking with the sax.

It was an honor and a pleasure! Thanks to all for the listens and the kind words on our joint endeavor!

Wow Salsaman - thanks so very much for the inspiring words to both of us! And I am always happy to meet another John Klemmer fan! I majored in music (in part) due to John's "Touch" album. I learned and frequently played many of his tunes through the 80's. Loved his "My Love Has Butterfly Wings"! Wow what an amazing vibe his music was in my 20--something old ears and he definitely inspired me to learn the sax. So thanks for such a wonderful sentiment as John Klemmer has always been a hero to me.

Glad you liked Tony's cool arrangement and vocal stylings and the sax that I put in to bolster his wonderful song!
