While still heavily involved in the "business", I continued to write and record. I took a local band out on weekends playing clubs and opening for some of Canada's most successful rock acts, the Tea Party and the Barenaked Ladies to name only two of dozens. I decided to call my new act NumberOneWorld, after jotting down on a piece of paper the most powerful words I could think of and mixing them up. NOW was an obvious anagram for a number of reasons, and while the band met with limited club success, our recordings online began to gather attention. A recording of "Inside My Room" was to go 1 on the glam charts at mp3.com and place in the top 5 @ garageband.com. In total the band was to see thousands of online visits and downloads. We released the CD "Eclipsed" which featured producer Chris Snell (Adrian Belew, Gabriel Reeves) on "Just Let It Be". Stifled by the recording limitations of a live band, I re-discovered computer sequencing and software, and my music was never to be the same again. And though I teamed up again with Bruce Street's Martin Gallop to record "Trudeau Park" (which hit the top 20 folk charts @ mp3.com), a new flavour of rock arrangement was being produced in my studio. My love of jazz and progressive pop glam was being "played" out in a new way, as I uitilized samples and exotic loops to create my new sound. I released a CD a year and I'm currently writing my 5th as NumberOneWorld, for release in 2007. With a new music publisher to shop my "creations" I look forward to a fruitful year....
