MERCHANDISE: On The Fast Track CD

"On The Fast Track," the follow up to my Love Letters CD, is a collection of songs that I believe are very upbeat, inspiring and most of all, soulful. It features my playing in a way that people who have seen me perform live are accustomed to - spontaneous and passionate. I've also tried to capture the energy of my band and put it in 60 minutes of recorded music. I'm very fortunate to have a band that, for the most part, has been with me since I've been recording as a leader on Heads Up. In those nine years we've been able to develop a rapport off and on the bandstand.

That kind of relationship makes playing music together so natural that it looks deceptively easy. One thing that I learned from Grover Washington Jr., however, is to never underestimate the musical and emotional complexity in a piece of music. I've learned to respect the work of other musicians enough to give a song a chance to grow on me. Like an onion, a good recording reveals layer after layer. The more you listen to it, the more you find in it.

I hope that listeners will take a few moments to lose themselves in the many layers of "On the Fast Track". In it they'll find elements inspired by contemporary city life: the hustle, bustle of downtown, the unwinding with family or a loved one after work, the electricity of city night life, and the stealing of some time alone to recharge before doing it all over again. In my view, it's a story set to music that reflects the contemporary challenge of keeping your footing in a fast moving world.
