    Artist description
    There are 13 songs on the "Planet Earth Volume 1" album.Including a very nice version of "Fanfare For The Common Man" by Arron Copland."THE ORTEGA TAPES" album contains 10 songs all of which are from my old archives. Most songs date back 15 years or more. The quality of the recordings are not bad but most of the equipment used was pretty old and now out dated. WHO AM I???....I'm am call drummer in Chicago.
