My Friend, Paul Muffoletto's Christian CD is Released!

It's Sunday, and can't think of a better day to share a CD that my friend, Paul Muffoletto released on CD Baby and iTunes recently!  Paul has been writing and recording Christian music since the 1970s.  One day when I was at his studio recording one of my songs, he showed me an old cassette tape he had of one of his Christian albums, and when reading the liner notes, a then yet undiscovered Sammy Kershaw provided the backup vocals to it.  Interesting how lives intertwine.

Paul is a really nice man, and has been a good friend to me over the years.  He is also a good Frank Sinatra impersonator and I had the pleasure of working with him several times in a Cher/Sinatra tribute show for some corporate events and fundraisers over the years.

He has a Christmas album on CD Baby now, so if you search on CD Baby, you can find it there, and you can also find his new album, "He is Alive and I'm Forgiven" there as well.  Most people I find tend to download their music on iTunes, so here is the iTunes link to his album, "He is Alive and I'm Forgiven".  Listen to samples and if you like them, please download his album!

Here's the link to his album!

My New Original Song, "Buzzards" is Released!

So excited that my new original song has been released on CD Baby!  It should be available on iTunes, Amazon, Sound Cloud, various internet radio stations and other download sites very soon.  Here is a link to my CD Baby page, where you can listen to a sample of my new song, "Buzzards", and if you haven't heard my first song, "When You Walk Away", you can hear it there too!  Hope you like them and add them to your iPod!

I had fun writing "Buzzards".  I know it's not an attractive name, but when something gets stuck in my head, it's hard to shake it loose.  I composed and arranged the music first, and listened to it a lot in my iPod while working out and doing chores around the house.  The image of buzzards circling around kept popping into my head, and the sadness of a love relationship dying seemed to fit the theme, so I ran with that.  I'm a big fan of the Eagles, and the guitar arrangement is a little bit reminiscent of "Hotel California"... my humble tribute to them.  

Here's the link to listen to samples and download my music:
