The fact that I’ve been very busy, mostly in the studio, is a lousy excuse for not posting. So……….
I have been doing a lot of my specialty, which is is fine-tuning pitch and time for both vocals and instruments. This is invaluable in production and engineering, as now artists I work with sound so good! To hear the time & pitch work done with The Brass Ring brass quintet:

Legal issues, as well as recovery from brain cancer surgery, kept me off FB, and kept me home (and later at the studio), instead of allowing me to be out in public.
That will change now!
In addition for thankfulness for health recovery, the steadfast love of my family and friends (including all of you!), I have been given the following gifts:
1) A totally amazing gift of friendship and LOVE that was freely given to me by my friends, and profoundly changed my former selfish nature to one of appreciation of the love I have been given! Now my attitude is changed to “what I can do for others?” I’m now very secure in the knowledge that I will be well taken care of.
2) Gifts from the doctors who re-attached my brain, greatly increasing my harmonic hearing and understanding, pitch and time awareness, and already able to use those gifts for doing much better work on both gigs and recordings. Because I couldn’t go out in public, I devoted significant time in practicing the bass (upright and electric), and now play the way I used to (maybe better)!
I look very forward to playing with my wonderful local friends again. Feel free to contact me, in any way you want to, for gigs and/or recording sessions. If you want to see and hear how I can help people in the studio or live, either by engineering, producing, and/or playing/singing, go to:
www.jjeff.info
www.southernsoundstudio.com
Most of the material has been remastered. I have been fortunate enough to take part in some truly amazing recordings and gigs, and hope to do more! Feel free to reach out to me anytime - I am truly here to help people make better music, and have the skills to do so.
Will be releasing much new original music soon. There will be links posted, but will NOT be posting it on FB, just simply because then they can use it free perpetually, and I won’t give them that right….
I LOVE all of you, and look forward to making music again with ALL my friends!!😎🎵🎹🎸🎷🎶🥁😍
