.......Even More Photos

..........More photos. People always want photos. I understand, photos are cool.
I think they help us to reflect on our purpose in life,
or how fat we've become

The Old 76 house is a regular stop for us. We always have a great time!

Don Gardner and Friends

don and friends

Don was a tremendous musician. Here are John Arbo, Jeremy Wall, Burr, and Don, after a very
rousing gig. I was told on more than one occasion that Don and I bring out each other's best.
We really connected musically. Don and I played together on and off for many years.
I will remember him with honor and affection.

trio

 

 

This ones kind of cool. Al, Thierry and Burr. Streets of NYC. Here's a fun fact....We started out as a street gang and after repeadly getting our butts kicked, decided to try music.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Navav

 

 

..AAh the ever regal Nadav Snir Zelniker, drummer extraordinaire,
can be seen here intensely focusing on his music
(or wondering if he shut off the stove)

 

 

 

 

 

charlie

 

 

Here is Charlie Zeleny (he likes to go by Charlie "Z" but personally I think Zeleny is a much cooler name. Charlie is very versitile and likes to play in many different stlyes. A pleasure to work with.

 

 

 

 

 

roger

 

 

........I've know Roger for a very long time. We played a lot of great music
........ together when we were just out of college. Roger is a true original.
..............He has great musical instincts and is really fun to play with. I
...................................learned a lot from him.



...................He's the kind of guy who always puts the music first
................... (captured here, we see Roger, planning his dinner)

 

 

kim

 

 

Kim Plainfield was on the "Traveler" CD. He brought profound force and musicality to that recording date. A true teacher and tremondous technician. Also someone who feels very deeply on pretty much any topic you dare broach. Kudos to Kim Plainfield.

 

 

 

 

tad

 

 

.....Tad McCully. Another tremendous talent. You won't find anything but
........ praise about all these guys. All such strong players. So much fun. Tad
.... has super fast hands and fantastic feel. A real fusion player

 

 

 

ethan

 

 

Of course this guy far surpasses all the others.
A monstrer in his own right (when he's not complaining
about the monsters in his closet)
