Over the years, I've been blessed with opportunities to know some extremely talented people, and I'm humbled and honored that they've found it within themselves to work with me. Amazingly, I've been involved in the making of hundreds of songs. Some are unfinished recordings, others exist only on paper, some are mere memories, while still others are long forgotten.

Some, however, have been preserved in an audible and somewhat complete form, and I've compiled a few favorites in a collection I call The Pen, the View, the Angels. The Pen signifies creativity, composition, communication; the View observation, reflection, perspective; and the Angels faith, hope, spirituality. All are virtues that I instituted while at various developmental institutions, and that I continually strive to continue to develop within myself.

Please visit the album website (www.PenViewAngels.com) for a behind-the-scenes look at the songs, and an introduction to the dear friends with whom I've collaborated. After all, this album is a tribute to them, praising them for their abilities and thanking them for their generosity (and vice versa).

There will also be A LOT of bonus material at that site that you won't want to miss, and that you won't find anywhere else.

Peace,
