专辑简介

This album represents diverse genres of music and highlights some of the many unique creative opportunities my career in music has presented to me. Legendary jazz and blues artists Jimmy Witherspoon, Jon Hendricks and Eugene Pao whom I met and recorded with whilst Music Director at The Jazz Club in Hong Kong provided true inspiration. My forays into the ever popular World Music bands of "Nogabe" (Afro-Reggae) and "Contimba" (Latin-Jazz) were both fun and exciting. Creative outlets with the wonderful Linsey Pollak, Tunji Beier and Mark Williams are featured as is the remarkable four octave vocal range of the unique Barry Charles. As a special inclusion are two pieces from a very special lady - Blossom Goodchild - where I have provided a keyboard soundscape. The first of these two pieces features Blossom narrating a message on the subject of 'Vibration' from her telepathic channelings of 'The Federation of Light". The second is a guided meditation from the Native American Spirit Energy "White Cloud" who Blossom direct voice channels and again I provide a soundscape for his voice. I hope you enjoy this diverse array of music and I am sure you will find something which I hope will also inspire you. Enjoy Ric Halstead
