    Just found out that George Duke (the guy who produced Gabriela Anders' albums) has passed away... oh man... RIP George, and thank you for everything.

That doesn't necessarily mean that more complexity is better for many times the simplest fabric conveys the strongest meaning. The important thing is intent, message, execution and honesty of design and in that I have always tried to hold my stead. Thus my musical fabric is diverse with multiple levels. That is the way of life and definitely the way I roll, so enjoy the ride … as Cannon used to say - "”Ahoom”
    Aside from all the great music, I used to really enjoy his podcasts, too.
