"Being
so much into Chick Corea and "Return to Forever",
it is no surprise that Flora Purim and Airto Moreira
were names I knew well and had a high admiration for.
So, when my friend Dom Camardella called me to record
a couple of tunes with them, I was ecstatic: Dom owns
"Sound Design Studios" in Santa Barbara,
and had done some projects with Flora & Airto
in the past. I immediately called Trey to play bass.
The quartet felt great right away, Flora asked us
to record for her new CD "Perpetual Emotion".
Flora loved how it turned out and asked both Trey
and I to join the band. I feel really fortunate to
be playing in a band that is such a wonderfully different
experience than any other band I have played with."
Below I have lots of photos
from the tour, which I hope you will enjoy.
