Thanks for the kind words all! I too am really looking forward to hearing the final tracks with Carlos' talents applied to them. The man is a legend and when it came to sitting down and deciding who I wanted to sit on the drumstool for the duration of the album I couldn't see any further than our dear friend Mr Hercules. It HAD to be him! Incidentally, if you haven't done so already, check the video I posted on this page of Carlos playing at the Cardiff International Arena.

Jon, you're right; Lee was a talent and friend taken too soon. He does, however, live on in the memories of those who heard him play, and I'm hoping to get some footage of him performing live up when I put together the extended Lee-themed article. Watch this space!

Tragic to hear about Lee Haynes. Just too young to be taken.

Well that _is_ exciting. Congrats on the collaboration! How did that come about? A chance meeting at the recording studio? Mutual friends with Beverly Knight?

Really looking forward to the new album.

I cant wait to hear the final sound! Looking forward to hearing the contribution the live drums will make in comparison to programmable drums.
