Singles
The Quartet recorded this for our 2013 album Imaginary Journey. The guys all outdid themselves and it's one of my favorites from that record. Matched it with a live video from the same era (see link below).

A 2021 remake of a jazz-rock tune I wrote in 1984. Fun fact - the solo at about 4:00 is my Roland guitar synth, and was recorded in 1987 on the demo I created. I extracted the solo track and used it here, 34 years later.

While I grew up with the Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 cover of this song, I wanted to pay homage to Jorge Ben's original arrangement - part of the beginning of the Tropicale movement.

Composed in 1982, refreshed in 2021. Anuradha is an Indian fusion piece born out of my infatuation with Shakti, Ravi Shankar and Yehudi Menuhin.

Robert was my brother-in-law Reggie's dad. We shared love for Jimi Hendrix's Band of Gypsys. I was moved to play some jams and this piece came out in one take, dedicated to Robert. Robert left this world Dec 4, 2021.
