My Opinion

Having played with Mose for the past seven years…i can tell you, his music is challenging, fantastic-a hybrid combination of impressionism, modern classical, blues, jazz, country. He is a genius of genii…many of the millionaire rockers have copied him…some have given him credit, others have just lifted his ideas and twisted them just a bit and tried to call them their own…the masses are fooled, but I am not. Mose is the Fountainhead…the real thing…the best the 2oth and 21st Centuries have to offer. He has shunned the mega spotlight to keep his work honest…’limousines and swimming pools, I didn’t get my share’, but how it’s time he got his share. How about a Nobel Prize? A Grammy? A Yamaha Lifetime Achievement Award? A Kennedy Center Award? Cmon now, somebody should wake up to this man’s genius while he is among us. Give him his due.
