Hi - every year or two, when the mood/timing seems right, I like to try to record about 20-25 songs as a 'project'; I recently did this when I had some extra "at-home" time ... I don't know the best way to share it; for now, I've put the ~25 songs plus the "album art" up on a dropbox (you don't need a dropbox account to download or play them) ... this time, it's mostly Broadway / Show music.
(This is about my 4th such "album" project ... I do them for family/friends/musicians, not to sell) . . .

All the sounds are Genos; most are "stock" styles. On ~3/4 of them, I have added a bit extra via an overdub, such as extra sings, horns over a section, a Glockenspeil layer, a few extra drum hits ... depending on the songs. Anyway, here they are . . .

Jim thank you for sharing your work....
That was quite an impressive song list. Great use of different sounds.
Very nicely done. Do you sing at all or only play instrumentals.

Hi - Thanks. I work with singers (I do a "duo" show as my primary kind of gig) but myself, I don't sing.

Very impressive selection of beloved songs from the great shows of Broadway's golden age. Very well played and you really make your Genos sound wonderful!
