Well I just listened to music from the recent December jam. Outstanding efforts – the highlight for me from the songs posted to date from the December jam is Corporate Frenzy Blues. I reviewed the site and I am amazed by the output from 2022 overall. Starting with the sessions from February titled The Beat Goes On – a wonderful collection of songs from that one night. Look at the site and you will see an amazing collection of songs that we created through out 2022. Excluding the Train Wreck session, which was not our best, but the other sessions posted are fantastic. I admit, hopefully not only because I had a hand in the creation of the music, but we seem to be tireless. The flow of music just continues. Again looking at the output from the Beat Goes On Sessions – all great tunes, then when you add the songs from the other sessions in 2022 – it leaves me in awe and grateful for what was experienced and the music that was a result.

As the year 2022 come to a close, I want you, my Belvedere Brothers to know how much I appreciate the work you both have done. I say work but really it is more a fusion of creative magic. You both have brought a new level to my life with your playing, your spirit, and your ability to be generous with your talents. It is my nature to be somewhat cynical and that carries over to my expectations from band night. I am happy that my expectations are always exceeded. The playing and the production is always enthusiastic, you both bring your energy and creative light to the music. The light from the year 2022 is dimming, but as long as we are together creating music our light will continue to grow and to shine.

Be well my Belvedere Brothers. Thank you both for an amazing 2022.

Ronnie
