I have just returned from a tour of Italy, and I must say that I had a great time. The shows were great, and the people were so affectionate and lovely to be around. What a beautiful country!!! The Italians are very emotional people, and as I am an emotional person, too, it was a perfect match. I was able to play many of the ballads that I hold dear to my heart, and I feel that I was truly able to express myself as an artist and as a person. I will be posting many photos of my trip, as well as mp3s of live music, and the many stories of my shows with two great artists, Graziano Romani and Dirk Hamilton, just as soon as I overcome my jet lag and unpack. For those awaiting CDs, I will be getting that together soon, and I am sorry about the delay. Thank you for your patience!
