Jazz is a must; can do Chicago blues (preferably with horns) or work with Hammond B-3 jazz-infused blues and indy: i.e, killer groove crossover material and layered contrapuntal work. NYC heavy rock hitter and indy at CBGB in 70s--been there, done with that; so, returned to very focused jazz studies years ago, and play a broad range of types daily. Need innovative seasoned musicians who listen to each other, coherent recording studio coherence is name of the game. With the right people, we can have fun and, if desired, go gig the good scenes.
