Soundtrack For A Film Without Pictures

We interrupt the Need To Know Badass Blues Instrumental Series to announce the release of Soundtrack For A Film Without Pictures. After a lifetime of sidemanning, co-this'ing and co-that'ing I've decided to stick my neck out there ALL the way. And, as any smart leader will do, surrounded myself with some of the most brilliant musicians I could ever dream of making music with and then spent the last several years building what became the Soundtrack For A Film Without Pictures. Scott Yanow, the esteemed music journalist, and historian wrote the bio/blurb for this project so instead of me uncomfortably tooting my own horn I'm gonna let you all read it here: From there you can also get to Bandcamp to acquire the digital download of the whole record or even purchase a physical CD! (How many of you still have cd players?) We're also hoping to run vinyl if the interest is there. So please, ENJOY, let me know what you think, and accept my gratitude for your support.
