Hello All,

-------------------------------------------------------------------
I am working on a new album "Soul Expression"
The song "Soul Expression" and three songs were recorded with
"Detroit home boys" at the Henson Studios in Hollywood in July 2013.
Great news!! When I was in Detroit for my concert, I was on Fox2 News Morning show.
Special thanks to Mike Melody Watts, Chris Kelly, Gisele Caver & Al Johnson!
Soon more to come! Stay tuned!
Here’s an excerpt from my appearance on Fox2 in Detroit, promoting my original song,
"Soul Expression."
While working on the album I heard the sad news that Ricky Lawson, has passed away on
December 23, 2013.
Ricky was a great drummer and composer. A native of Detroit, Michigan and worked
extensively as a session musician, collaborating with Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson,
Eric Clapton, Phil Collins, Whitney Houston, Steely Dan and other artists.
He co-founded the jazz-fusionband the Yellowjackets and won the 1987 Grammy Award for
Best R&B Instrumental Performance for "And You Know That" from their album Shades.
