The following songs were recorded in 1998 at a Recording Studio off San Jose Blvd in Jacksonville, FL. twenty-six years is a long time ago! Since 1998 I've strengthened my vocals, refined my tone, and have more control over my diaphram and vibrato. I was hesitant to share these recordings with you because they are raw, naked, and not manipulated by studio equipment. The tracks were initially laid out to build a radio-worthy group of recordings. That never happened. They are all first attempts. Those who know me know that I'm extremely critical of myself and hear every mistake when I sing. But I can't help remembering how much fun we had as a Community in Jacksonville in the 90's and I think that hearing these recordings will bring back some fun memories! I was blessed to know many people who supported me in the 90's and encouraged me to keep on trying.
The songs "At This Moment", "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me", and "Dreams" were recorded after some practice. The last four songs were sung and recorded for the first time during this session. They are easily the most obvious samples needing a lot of engineering and production. But again, they were fun to sing! Those who heard them sung in 1998 versus how I sing them now will be able to hear the distinct difference between then and now. Either way, I love singing. I don't think I'll ever stop. Enjoy.
