I let Donald Fagan borrow my backing band.... :->

I supported myself with my wooden guitar for a few years, playing solo gigs in northern NJ and lower NY. When I met and instantly fell in love with Lisa, she had a 4 year old son and I literally had holes in my Keds hightops. 

Mesaid to meself .... I stand no chance with this woman unless I get a real job, which I did.

Fast forward ~30 years, my Mom had passed and left me some money. I chose to use it to record some of my original music backed by some Hudson Valley All Star Musicians. Was lucky to be friends with Butch, who was the post Robbie The Band's (and Levon and Rick's) Road Manager. He was plugged in to the local scene and talent.

Pretty proud of the resulting CD.

But, today, I stumbled upon Donald Fagan doing Shakedown St  -- and his backing band was the same as mine.

How cool was that?

My music here ... there are 4 videos.    www.mere-mortals.net

In two weeks, I have several of the same musicians in line (including Levon's killer drummer & Grandson Lee Collins) for a live show. The Band had The Last Waltz?   This is my Last Watusi.....
