Stream Works Audio - An online magazine I write a monthly column for. Check it out for some invaluable tips and tricks on recording in your personal studio, product reviews, artist interviews and more.

Hal Leonard Publishing - Obviously, the publisher of my method books. Unfortunately, they can't be purchased online. Support your local music dealer etc.

Music Tech College - I've been with them as a faculty member since my "retirement" from the full time recording business in Nashville four years ago. We recently moved to a new multi-million dollar facility in St. Paul. Great school!

Ricky Peterson -Ricky and I go back a ways. He worked with me on the Diffusion album at the ripe old age of eighteen - one hell of a pure talent! He has gone on to make quite a name for himself, as youšll see at his site.

Artist Quarter - Possibly the best jazz club this side of NYC. Owned and operated by jazz musicians (most of whom appear on my recordings), and my very favorite place to play.

Gordy Knudston - This guy is SOME drummer. A fellow faculty member at Music Tech, and drummer for the Steve Miller Band. I try to work with him every chance I get. His site is full of stuff of interest to you folks who make a living beating on things.

Tusk Buffer - A source for legal ivory guitar picks. Ivory is the absolute best material for a guitar pick, but Elephant ivory is illegal. So, these ivory picks are made from Mammoth ivory. That's right folks, the Wooly Mammoth walked the earth 60,000 years ago just so we might have the very best guitar picks ever made. They are all I use now. A bit pricey, but worth every nickel in my opinion!

Twin Cities Jazz Society - Well, er...The Twin Cities Jazz Society!

Jazz Guitar Online - Kind of self explanatory, a great place to check out all things jazz guitar.

Mickey Newbury - Far from jazz, but a wonderful singer songwriter. Member of the Country Music Hall of Fame. I worked on a lot of his stuff in Nashville, and did "sweetening" on a reissue CD "Blame it on the Moon" just recently.

Heritage Guitars - I play and endorse these instruments. As far as Išm concerned, the best carved top guitars on the planet, bar none!

Triplicate - "Friends and family" so-to-speak. Wonderful players, fellow faculty members at Music Tech, and they do a lot for the jazz cause in the area.

Gordon Johnson - Gordy is one of the best bass players around. I consider him a member of my "group" along with Gordy Knudtson and Adi Yeshaya, on those rare occasions when we actually work. Great time and tone, and solo's like Bird.

Sue Tucker - Sue is a wonderful singer. She's a fellow faculty member at Music Tech, and we do club dates together every now and then. Sue is always my first call when I need to put a vocal group together for a jingle session etc. A real pro.

J. G. Stewart-Fine Guitars - A great site for Vintage instruments. John has one of my old guitars in his possession now that I never should have sold. Check out the 1976 Gibson Citation. (I didn't get NEAR that for it!) Save up!

GuitarRecords - Great source for older vinyl jazz guitar records including some of my early vinyl stuff.

Tolkien-music- The purpose of this web site is to provide an exhaustive discography of musical works inspired by or referential to the fictional writings of J.R.R. Tolkien (The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion and their accompanying mythology).

Mid Valley Quartet - The Mid Valley Quartet is a Colorado based gospel group that I have produced several CD's with.
