Although I no longer tour or perform live I do I alot of composing and arranging at home. So, For your listening pleasure here are several of my original compositions or should I say; "Joints", "Beats", "Jams", "Tracks" or "Songs" of mine. Depending on your internet connection speed It may take a minute or two to download so please hang loose…and enjoy and dance like nobody is watching. Also I have added some new photos to my photo album, one of them is of Celia Cruz, with Jorge Gonzalez on Bongos...Jorge thanks for the pic.
I hope you enjoy listening to my songs and the solos. If you have any questions or comments about my songs, the musicians or the solos please post them here or send me an email.
