I compose, arrange, play guitars, bass, keyboards, rap, sing.. I just do my thing.. I played in the well known SF bay area fusion band CLOUDS in the 70s.. and before the days of all this bling I spent 2 years in the late 70s with THE DAVID LA FLAMME BAND touring the states.. sex drugs rock and roll.. had it all.. EVERYTHING.. but I wouldn't trade for what I got now.. my own way.. my own music.. my own thing..
an award winning composer of chamber music with university honors and published and recorded compositions, I am a jazz musician.. I've played with, among others, woody shaw, jon hendricks, julian priester and mike nock.. I'm no longer a classic cover tune or mainstream jazz artist, rather a jazz musician who believes in world music as trane did.. seeking to blend many genres into a fresh and innovative style of jazz..
after many years on the axe I've finally done a 2nd CD showing my style.. RAPSTER GUITARS IT.. 2.. 12 original songs and collabs featuring syntopia, margot du bois and TLT50.. order here direct:

Pretty brush sample_my old friends told "les oeufs battu en neige"...
This soft rhythm is like a white carpet for the jazzy guitar solo .. this flavour of Zappa's style this stuff as worth, outstanding as nu-jazz.

Blues is making a big comeback in this worldwide economic slump - benefits the musical abilities of Joe Rapster for sure ; ))
Love this melodic beat - the bass is hypnotizing! Excellent composition! Very catchy - cool guitar licks too ; ))
