recorded live at the Van Dyke Cafe in South Beach   personally I was just a bit fried in this show, having worked some double gigs and a show every day this week. I think it was still a great show anyway. Especially Ike who always throws down.   Tags: ...

live with Ike and Val at the Van Dyke Cafe 10.03.2009 this was a great show. the only thing was that our drummer Stevie Jackson was delayed and missed the first 15 minutes of the show. We did not have any drumsticks so Ike went outside and cut some branches off a tree and Jimmie Lee played drums with those branch/sticks and I hopped on bass until Stevie got there, then we switched back to our regular instruments. The show was hot though, and got hotter as the night went on.   ...

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...

In 1992-93 I produced an album for international rock star Mike Hanopol. Americans might not know who he is, but he is considered "The Father of Pinoy Rock". Pinoy Rock is a genre of hard rock hailing from the Philippines. Mike Hanopol is as big a star in the Philippines as the Beatles were here in america. Mike had to leave the Philippines for political reasons, and he moved here to Miami to wait out the changes in his home country's regime. While he was here, he and I worked together to create what was to be his comeback album...

  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...

When my father died last year, it sort of put a whole new perspective on my life. When I saw the writeup on him in the New York Times, and all the many others, and how they listed all his accomplishments, I sort of realised how I hadn't ever done the same thing for myself... just sort of plodding along doing what I do... which is interesting in itself. But I realised, I have this entire, gigantic body of work that I've done, that's never seen the light of day for one reason or another. (I will get into the deeper...
