This album has an abundance of riches for potential singles, and we have narrowed it down to six memorable tracks.
1. FEELS SO GOOD A long-awaited, jubilant, reimagined, and never-before-covered version of the iconic Chuck Mangione song by the foremost current artist identifying primarily as a flugelhornist, and who now carries the torch. Guitarist Grant Geissman, who played on the original 1977 version, reprises his role with a new flair, and even performs on the same 1968 Gibson L5 guitar! Time for a happy dance!
2. CHILL@WILL (Dirty South mix) This track has swagger and sway, co-produced and mixed by keyboardist Bob Baldwin.
3. HEADING NORTH This driving track features the sweet guitar sound of Paul Brown .... and away we go on a road trip to the great white North for skiing, sailing, cold beer, and happy people!
4. HANG ON TO YOUR LOVE A long overdue feisty version of the well-known but under-covered Sade tune. Lots of solid components and percussive flair. Urgent yet romantic.
5. PRESENCE OF MIND A sparkling original with all the right elements for radio - flugelhorn, sax, guitar - loaded with ear-candy!
6. SHOW ME ANOTHER WAY This is a very intimate and romantic piece made for lovers and dreamers.
