These are recent projects (over the last 10 years or so) I have been working on. All are available either through me, or the link provided.There are song samples in MP3 format to check out, also. |

"The
Many Faces" features 3 original songs (2 by my brother Bob and 1
by Richard Burt). I continue to explore Latin and Reggae influences, coming
up with something I think of as swampreggae. I did much of it, but a large
selection of musicians appear on this project, from Milkbone, BLT, the
Jokimakis, and other special guests.

1. Gotta Run2. 300 lbs of Heavenly Joy3. Wayfaring Stranger |
Embryo is a project
I have done completely by myself (except for a couple of percussion parts
and the Sax Ensemble). The idea was to see how hard I could push the sequencer.
I chose some of my favorite songs, and the project came out pretty mellow.
It also features 2 original songs by me..

1. Embryo2. Walkin In Your Footsteps3. Comin' Home |
"Something
Personal" is a gift to Wanda Shiflett, who asked me if I would sing
"The Dance" at her funeral. Well, I didn't think she would die
before me, so I figured I better record it. Then she mentioned a few other
songs she'd like to have! I just finished this in June, 2005. There are
only 7 songs, and I hadn't really thought of it as a project, just a couple
tunes, but I liked it when it was done.

1. The Dance2. Beautiful Brown Eyes3. Do It |
Paul
Ritchie has been songwriter and musician since 1970, beginning with coffeehouses
and other local events in the Toronto area. He was approached by a Mariposa
Folk Festival orgainizer and was invited to do a performance during their
outdoor concert series. He continued with the festival for several years
and has worked with many native Canadian artists both in television and
at other music festivals. After taking time to raise a family he has returned
to his musical roots.

1. Walkin' With My Baby2. 4th Street3. September Town |
The
Blue Healers (1994-96). Basically a blues band, there is plenty of original
jazz and rock in there. This is some mighty fine music by a really talented
band. Monte Uggla, Jim Hall, Randy Anderson, Mark Thompson and Bill Taylor.
