Plymouth On My Mind- About the Album
Bob’s music can best be described as eclectic, eccentric, and electric.

Bob’s album is a tasteful blend of 21 of his original instrumental compositions covering a wide-range of musical styles and genres. Produced by Brian Brodeur of East Main Media and recorded at the legendary Sound on Sound Studios, the album features performances by an outstanding cast of NYC metro area session players, including Tobias Ralph on drums (Drummerworld – “Top 500 Drummers.”).
