  • A song I wrote for my then-4-year-old son, who was "Flash Superboy", a very small boy who could run across the living room in a flash. But the time of Flash Superboy is gone now, and like every era of his life, I miss it. So this tune is a bit of a goodbye from a father to the "littleness" of his little boy. Recorded live at the Osnabrück Institut für Musik in Germany, December 2013. This performance will be one of probably 6 on a live CD/DVD package we're working on that we'll release sometime around March 2014.

    That's absolutely beautiful. It touched me very deeply
    The Jazz world needs more like this
    and less of that obsessive-compulsive Jazz that
    seems to be be so hip at modern times.
