This CD represents a dream of mine playing multiple woodwind parts in addition to singing the lyrics and playing instrumental solos on the many American Songbook standards which were beautifully arranged by friend John Oddo, who has spent years with artists such as Rosemary Clooney and Debby Boone as musical director and arranger/accompanist. I even included several tunes with a vocal group feel since i spent years in the groups; The Hi-Lo's! and The Singers Unlimited. So, "Hear At Last" finally became a reality for me after years of playing and singing on so many other artists albums and CDs.
