No recording this week as Mike and I agreed that a break is necessary. Plus, with this impending snowstorm coming, we picked a good week to go nowhere. Nice not to rush things! I’ve been listening to the tracks, working on rhythm parts here at home, also coming up with some cool clean ideas (!)Continue reading “NEW STRINGS FOR NEW ALBUM!”

Friday January 16th, 2026: Mike Sabatini (drums/producer/engineer), CJ Scioscia (assistant engineer) and I communed at Bandmother Recording to begin laying down drum tracks for the tenth magnum opus. Despite the weather being super cold, we were surrounded by warm gear and sheltered from the high winds. Started tracking drums for the first song, so farContinue reading “TWO DAYS OF RECORDING IN THE BOOKS”

Here we are the first full week of 2026, and already I’m entering a new phase or level in my life. Whatever you want to call it, this energy has been shifting for me since August last year. I don’t want to sound all cosmic and deep but will lay my cards on the tableContinue reading “NEW YEAR, SAME HAIR”

I’m typing this blog on December 19, 2025. You will see this on New Years Ever. Pretty cool, huh? Every year around this time, I do my year-end roundup, and I leave it all out there to see. The good, the bad, and the ugly. I am a PR agent’s nightmare because they would wantContinue reading “TYPING 12.19 BUT YOU’LL SEE 12.31”

The eighth and final song was worked on this morning. Pinkie wanted to be part of it, so I brought her to rehearsal, and life was good. So is the music. After going over the seven songs with some weird technical issues happening (those pesky gremlins), we tackled song number eight. Went over the parts,Continue reading “CLOCK STRIKES TEN”

Here it is, Wednesday December 10th. I have not stepped foot outside all day. That’s okay though. I have nothing to do, nowhere to go…you can figure out the rest. Why am I home?! For starters, no rehearsal today. Mike is busy helping another band by playing drums on their upcoming album. He’s been quiteContinue reading “NOTHING TO DO, NOWHERE TO GO…”

The last piece of the puzzle is now complete. ALL NINE ALBUMS are now available, totally remastered and rebranded, on my Bandcamp page! Now I can relax! I remastered JUPITER RETURN a few days ago so this is a pleasant surprise, even for me. I have ABOUT TO EXPLODE on cd here at home butContinue reading “LAST PIECE OF THE PUZZLE”

Well I somehow found the files for my dark horse third album JUPITER RETURN, and remastered it. Hence the title JUPITER RETURN…AGAIN! The memories came flooding back, not all were good but will not make this blog a downer. I will focus on the good points. This is definitely one of my most “experimental” albums.Continue reading “THE DARK HORSE RETURNS…”

So here we are, Thanksgiving Eve…what are we thankful for? The obvious answers are family, friends, our pets, and life’s little whims. My music is one of them 😉 Had rehearsal this morning as shown in the pictures above. Even the dumpster wanted in on the action. And you gotta enjoy a studio with aContinue reading “THANKFUL FOR NEW MUSIC!”
