August 4, 1994: Tom Smarda and I backed up Rocky Capano in the recording studio


Thirty years ago today 

            On Thursday Rocky Capano had Tom Smarda and me come into the studio to help him record his album. Rocky handed me a lyric sheet and I practically had to write the song for him as I made up a melody while the studio musicians improvised. It was great working with professional musicians like Cozi Boo Boo the drummer who told everyone to watch me and follow. There was also a guitarist but I found him a bit too metal for my taste. After doing Rocky’s song I got to do my song “Me and Gravity” with Tom and them backing me up. That night I went to the Armchair reading series and Yehudah Cullman was there.
