Thank God it’s a new year. In the rearview mirror are some health issues to which I am happy to say farewell.

Looking forward to the Berklee College of Music premier of “20 Feet From Stardom.” I will be on the panel with the film’s featured back-up singers. They will tell some road stories. I will tell some session stories. Like that crazy day at Crushing when…

We finished another track for the song-pitch project a couple weeks ago – “River,” with more inspired playing by Larry Saltzman, mixing from Michael Golub. Looking forward to getting Paul Simon sideman Mark Stewart on the next track, on cello, when he returns from the Simon/Sting tour.

Warmest wishes for a rewarding 2014.
