    This is my secret to the perfect kick drum sound(funny)

    His name is Sloan. He knows just how to lay in there depending on the genre. A true jazz cat. Just kidding of course. I was looking for this poor fella and he made his way through the small vent on the front side. Cats are like water.

    My friend John Kocur's new jazz CD is released(I recorded/engineered)

    and to celebrate he played at the famous "Blues Alley" venue last night. The album was recorded in one live room. Sort of reminiscent of the old Rudy Van Gelder type recordings. All original compositions except "Hallelujah" Tunes were either 2nd or 3rd takes with the band sight reading...
