SNEAK PREVIEW OF MY NEW CD!!

On my playlist , I've added two new charts
that have been recorded by my "beta test " band -
the INCREDIBLE UNTx 2 O Clock lab band led by Jim Riggs ( who is retiring this year after 30 some years @ UNT ) These guys have tested all of my new stuff for the first two CDs, and are doing it again this year.

The tunes are @ the top of the playlist:
Play Tonic, Buds!
Limehouse Blues

I may a bit biased, but I think the 2 is easily the equal of the better known 1 O Clock . In fact , Riggs and the 2 O Clockers were selected as BEST college band in the recent Downbeat poll ( june issue ) and hopefully will have a great new CD of their own out soon.

I'm hoping to record my new one sometime this coming fall / winter. I have most of the writing done and about 66% of the production bread -so I'm fixin' to head towards the barn on this'n !

Watch this space!! :)

( and check out these kids on the playlist )

sorry for the "spammishness" of multiposting this, but I wanted all interested guys to hear these kids!
