- It was in DC where I started my career.......
I have fond memories... DC from 1966-1976 was on
full speed a head, politically, with civil rights issues, music,
and other art forms... it was a time of growth and attempts at trying to understand "how can we fix this"????
I am glad that I was there and I still have my precious DC friends..

What has it been? More than 30 years.
I'm living in Paris and still trying to justify calling myself an artist.
I'm happy to see that you're doing the same.
Let's hook up. Bern is only a short train ride.

I hope I don't have you confused with someone else. I worked for years in DC in the early 70s at Mr. Henry's Upstairs with Stanley Woodruff & The Us Trio. I was the bass player with Bill Joyner on piano and Rick Burrell, drums. If I'm correct, we played with you several times between '74 & '77. If I'm wrong, then, it's good being in touch anyway.

I'm glad you remembered.
So, you're living in Bern. I haven't been there since the late '80s. It wasn't too cold.
I'm here in Paris, trying to not be too frustrated with the French (the language and the people). I'm loving it!
Give me an update on your activities.
I have no aversion to working with old colleagues. Have bass, will travel. It's only a train ride.

Take care.
Bisous.
