Description

Have been in mostly original groups...rock, jazz fusion, the last group I was leading was a Funk R&b blues thing. Check it out here...

FYI my playing is downplayed for the recording. I tend to stretch a little more normally.
My style is based in jazz, funk and r& and and am interested in doing mostly covers. I believe people are clamoring now to be entertained now more than ever, and making people "feel" something is my motivation so what better way then to give them songs they know and like, even if maybe slightly tweaked. I like the idea of giving an audience a "feeling" vsĀ something they need to listen to. Im also interested in singing but need to get that practice playing and singing in.
This is the direction I'm leaning towards....
Sir Duke/I wish - Stevie Wonder
Undercover of the night - Rolling Stones
Driven to Tears/Murder by Numbers - The Police
Diamond in the back/Anything by Curtis mayfield
One thing leads to Another - The Fixx
Just got paid - ZZtop
Whats going on/Inner city blues - Marvin Gaye
Who is he and what is he to you- Bill Withers (Meshell N'degochello version is better imo)
Anything by James Brown or P funk.
Any 90's songs reworked to fit the groove.
I do have some people possibly available as well but let's see what this shakes out.
Thanks.
