To have been able to produce new renditions of two of my all-time favorite songs, "Miracles," and "Sunny" is a dream come true. To have worked on "Compromise" by Spirit, "Lest We Forget" by The Buzzcocks, promote "Signs" by the band Tesla, and "Real Life Blues" from Alvin Lee, George Harrison and Jon Lord (of Deep Purple,) as well as Rusty Kershaw with Neil Young is also the stuff that dreams are made of. Before George Harrison passed away he sent me a few e mails; I got him in touch with Bobby Hebb as they both worked together in 1966 on the final Beatles tour.
Bobby's performances in Montreal at the Beatles show are on my boxed sets.

Performed at TV3 1998 Christmas Party at my request. I'm working on the 2nd boxed set of his work, many albums that Bobby never released, additional albums that I recorded with him.
It's been my honor to be the producer who recorded more additional versions of "Sunny" than any other producer in the world. And Bobby's original producer was a dear friend of mine...the absolute founder of the Philly Sound that launched Gamble and Huff from his studio.

The list is long and lengthy from our Motown deal in 1986 to the work with the prestigious European distributors at Musidisc and RCA Records
My release of Johnny Thunders IN COLD BLOOD was the biggest album of 1983 for the Paris record label. Produced by one of the greatest record producers of all time (his latest release, the reissue of Goat's Head Soup by The Rolling Stones,) a producer I moved to the apartments behind the office of Attorney Breanna Lungo-Koehn back in the mid 1980s.
A rare interview with Rolling Stones / Bob Dylan guitarist Mick Taylor is on our next release due in March of 2021. I was Mick's publicist for the album Stranger in Town and brought him to the Hard Rock Cafe in Boston for the record release party.
