MIND GAMES Release

A New Album ...

I can hardly believe that it has been 52 years since the release of Mind Games.  John was excited to be in the studio again and with the top New York session guys. He was impressed how fast everything was going. I remembered contacting Jim Keltner, David Spinozza, Gordon Edwards, Kenny Ascher, Hugh McCracken, Arthur Jenkins, Michael Brecker, Sneaky Pete...just to name a few to be a part of this album. Of course, it was recorded at The Record Plant Studios in NYC. It's amazing that I remained friends with most of these guys over the years.


The above photo I took of John was the cover for my Instamatic Karma book in 2008 but this was the time period when John and I were in LA and started to do press for the release of the album.
