Dave Talks About the CD Project

The word Gone has several meanings for me…

There’s the 20-plus years I was away from the music scene, then there’s the feeling when your lover leaves and your heart breaks… alone and empty, and finally, the beatnik/hipster notion of an irrevocably cool person.

I have returned to music and am proud to present these original compositions brought wonderfully alive by the musicianship of Ernie Watts, Babatunde Lea, Gary Brown, Harold Muniz, and especially Mary Stallings who literally breathed life into my lyrics. Lucky me! My deepest thanks and gratitude to all.
