Hej! här kommer ett mail jag fick i natt:
New York City 17/09/09
Hello Jorgen,
How are you? Sorry it took so long to respone, with the summer going on I've been very busy with family, music and fun. I've been free-lancing with a lot of different artist all this time from singer-songwriters like Jon Herington, guitarist for Steely Dan, wich Dennis and I got to perform together again. Collen McFarland, a singer-songwriter from Nashville. I toured and played on one of her cd's "Three Miles From Odessa" and many others around the New York/Philadelphia area.
I also recorded and toured with avant-garde guitarist Sonny Sharrock, I was sometimes playing with him during the period as I was also playing and touring with Kim. I played on 3 records with Sonny and toured all ove rthe world. Also another guitarist John King, and we did 2 records together and tourd Europe.
These days I spend most of my time touring with jazz keyboardist Lonnie Liston Smith, and playing in the New York/Philadelphia area with my own jazz trio, The New Earth Trio www.NewEarthTrio.com or hanging out with my wife of 33 years Sylvia, and my daughter Stevi. Stevi just finished her masters degree in Sports Finance and Administration at NYU. She was a tennis player in college, so we get to play a lot of tennis when we're together as a family. Sylvia and I live in New Jersey near Philadelphia, Stevi lives in Brooklyn NY.
I'm in touch with Dennis, Joe Delia and I talk every so often. I haven't talk to Kim in some years now but I have the best of memories of our recording and touring together. It's fun to see some of the stuff on youtube.
All the best to you,
Abe S.
