For Holy Week this year, a re-mix of a recording I made several years ago. I thought this Hymn, by Robert Lowry, would sound good with an African beat and Reggae style. Here is the result. -- Dean electro-acoustic guitar. -- Epiphone short…

Note: Dr. Sattilaro strayed from the diet in the late '80s and back onto typical Western fare, his cancer returned, and he died soon thereafter. hey so just wanna pop in really quick and talk about a book I just read it’s by a doctor called…

I am thinking this will be the bridge between Compass and South of Compass (my daughter's songs) I am trying to decide if I want it with or without drums...let me know what you think,

This is the first track from RPM 2024. See you in March with the rest of the album!
