Question for nfaguys: Not trying to out you or anything, but is one of the famous jazz musicians you've helped out the tenor saxist Sonny Rollins?

Don't I wish!! Would have liked to have recorded him. The two that I recorded that I sent to the artists were: The Candolis (Pete and Conte Candoli) - this about 12 yrs ago, recorded Chicago 1983. Also Frank D'Rone, whom I recorded in Chicago 1983.

This one will be available soon thru his website which is Frank D\'Rone website . It is cited on the "News" page. Frank has decided to name it "Falling In Live with Love", which is the name of one of the songs on it. He is, IMHO, one extremely talented person, both singing and on guitar. And also a very nice guy.

Others, recorded, but not issued (and the tapes are "somewhere in boxes after our move to Maine") include Carl Fontana, James Moody, Lionel Hampton, Adam Makovicz, Phil Wilson, Makoto Ozone, Anita O'Day, Clark Terry...and maybe some others. Several recordings were of Northern Illionois Univ Jazs Ensemble with some of these artists.

I'm pretty much "shut down" not since not much to record here in Northern Maine (moose, deer etc???). Also because of this I sold my A#1 best microphone on ebay seveal yrs ago.

So now I listen and enjoy the music.

Just wondering if anyone else out there has had the same passion as I.
