"This Masquerade" is an album that guitarist Jim Robitaille and I recorded in 2005. At the time, we were playing weekly at the Chatham Wayside Inn on Cape Cod and decided to record an album we could offer for sale on our gigs. Now, some 20 years later, we have re-released it and made it available on all streaming platforms. We selected the album's songs from the repertoire we were performing at our gigs. Jim had introduced me to several of them including "Creepin'" by Stevie Wonder, "Love Theme from Cinema Paradiso" by Ennio Morricone, and "Angel" by Jimi Hendrix. Other tracks are "Samba de Orfeu" by Luiz Bonfá, "Things Ain't What They Used To Be" by Mercer Ellington, "A Child Is Born" by Thad Jones, and the title track "This Masquerade" by Leon Russell. Jim is a virtuoso guitarist and award winning composer. I have always marveled at his mastery of multiple styles and this album offers an opportunity for you to hear that mastery for yourself. Whether it's pop, jazz, classical or blues, Jim gets it exactly right! Visit Jim's website at www.jimrobitaille.com to learn more about his projects and performances. Best wishes to everyone for 2025! |
