I am still working on original & cover material myself, recording all the parts I can, always awaiting the right musicians to join me in live works, sharing jazzy soulful, in the pocket, & gospel w/positive energy & power grooves. Please check out some more of JNJL ://./lennyfitzgerald & I've even resorted to recording a few vocal demo shots for wedding & alike gigs again. As I've been working alone for so long now, not finding common collaboration, who knows what I'll end up doing, but my styles may expand ://./570729357 >>>Btw, paying for this premium stuff isn't in my interest right now, please hit inspiredsoundz or (801) 347-4313

EQUIPMENT
Primarily, My lead vocal, writing & arranging skills are forefront. I do use the keyboard as a central writing & recording tool, but I need some live players & some interaction with folk on the same page.
I plan to get a get again, pray for some new space, & if I have to do it all alone I will, but I definately need the sax trumpet bass & groove drummer until then.

Just New Just Love
Just New Just Love Track number: 1 Year: 2009 Album: Just New Just Love Genre: Other
I actually don't know how to describe the style of this, being strongly influenced by great jazz, & mean shake up the bottom grooves, & mesmorized by the touching vocal clearance of Stevie Wonder & alike, I don't know what this is, but what the hey, it's better to put it out there & fail, than to not put it out @ all

If U Don't Mind
If U Don't Mind Track number: 3 Year: 2008 Album: Just New - Just Love Genre: Other
This one is definately one of my most (pop-oriented) tunes, that is a bit more approachable w/a lighter amount of jazz/gospel tones. I guess it would fit in a soul/pop/R&B catigory, don't know if I'm the best judge of that, just wrote what I heard. Companies used to tell me all the time that they had a hard time putting my style in a catigory. Anyway, the meaning is powerful-
