Recording session with Melba Moore.

In 1981 my friend Jerry Cohen, composer of Ain’t No Stopping Us Now, asked me to play guitar on Melba Moore’s album, What A Woman Needs. The recording session was in New York. I was incredibly honored to have played on this album.

 

Don Eaton Band.

In over 25 years of assuming the role of guitarist/singer with the Don Eaton Band (DEB), I have been blessed to work with musicians of the highest caliber with sincere dedication to their art, all under the guidance and leadership of Don Eaton. Don, along with the other band members, provides an inspiring, creative, and collaborative environment. This environment becomes an integral fabric in the successful outcome of the event. A common thread of dedication, professionalism, and all-around enjoyment, make my involvement with the DEB a truly unique experience.

 

University of Delaware faculty jazz ensemble

From 1990 - 2016, I provided jazz guitar instruction in the JAZZ MINOR program at the University of Delaware. What an incredible experience. I hope you enjoy an excerpt from one of our concerts.
