FUNKMEISTER was the first record I'd produced under my own name as artist. I have produced other LPs and/or have been in on the production of quite a few records, but this time, I decided I would take on the whole task of writing, arranging, recording, engineering, and producing in my own space, dependent on no one else to make any of the decisions, right or wrong. And it's taken me a while to feel comfortable with the result, but I think ultimately I set out what I had intended to do, which was to produce some good songs and...

that's what it is -- gratuitous commercialism running rampant. But I thought I'd let you know that I have created a radio spot (rather long one at about 5 minutes in length) to promote my new CD, which is shipping now. I have decided to spare the readers of this website the constant bombardment of my self-aggrandizement, by moving the funkmeister promo to the www.funkmeister.us website, where it belongs. Now that there is both a Funkmeister CD AND a Funkmeister BAND, we now have www.funkmeister.biz for the band P. R. and www.funkmeister.us for the CD promotion. So check out...

  Hi, this is just a quick post to let everybody know about a few things going on. First, as you probably heard, my CD is about to be released. It's at the pressing plant now, and hopefully nothing will go wrong. As mentioned we are accepting pre-orders and we expect to ship on August 8. And -- everyone who buys my CD from me through this website will receive a FREE DVD of my music video! (Oh, what joy, you say.) Well I think it's pretty good anyway and will certainly provide value added, for those of you that do...

  Hello World! I figured it was about time to let you all hear some of mysongs. This catalog ranges from 1985 to the present in terms of dates the songs were written, although these tracks were produced between January of 2008 and May of 2009. But seriously folks, ain't nothin' but a groove or two. I hope you dig it. I did all the...

Well... Jay Surrell, of videobillboards.org, the guy who did the video for me, did an excellent job of not only encapsulating my regurgitation of the last eight political years in this country (which he gleaned...

Well... Jay Surrell, of videobillboards.org, the guy who did the video for me, did an excellent job of not only encapsulating my regurgitation of the last eight political years in this country (which he gleaned from the music itself) but he also took it several steps further and added some very nice touches, like the sheep running one...

I received my new copy of Captain Jarvis today... the record was not released on CD, Noel died in 1994 ya know... the only copy I had was my original vinyl disc from 1979. I used it to make an mp3 a couple of months ago, but there was still an annoying skip that's been there forever, that I wasn't able to get rid of, so I had a copy of the album digitally re-mastered by a professional service. I've ripped it to mp3, and WOW, let me tell you... I think that is one nice sounding piece of music......
