about

This is my first album from 1999 which had a few songs I had written in the long process of getting sober & cleaning up my act so the darkness shows in the songs. That said I gave a zillion cd's to people, it was in stores and recorded on good 'ol 2 inch tape so I never really got around to releasing it digitally so here we are. It gets emotional for me listening to it. But It started with Me, Keith Lentin & the ever so musicial Steve Holley on drums. Keith produced it with me, or me with him. Ha!.We always fought about that stuff. And this is also one of the last albums the great Bobby Chouinard played drums on & we rocked. And Dr. Alan Cohen was the Executive producer.He gave me the gift of my first album and I owe him so much for that & I miss him terribly. It was a huge learning curve but there are some killer gems on here. the credits are in.. Hope you like it!!

Benny Landa New York, New York

From NYC I started playing gigs in the 80s when I was a teenager. And started throwing myself on stage anyway I could. At barely 20 and I did a gig that was a party for Dire Straits and played with Mark Knopfler and co for a whole set. I’ve played live & done session work with Carole King,Robert Gordon,Rex Fowler, Jim Steinman,Mark Hudson,Joe Vitale Howard Tate & many more. Hope you dig my music. ... more
