QUOTES: American Women in Jazz said, "she is a player of impeccable control and skills with... highly independent ideas...as a composer she is described by Dr. Antoinette Handy, in her book Black Women in American Bands as "a true original." The Here We Go Again CD started with a new profound relationship with her Lord. It is an array of music and life experiences. Gospel and Jazz music lovers young and old will find something they can identify with. 1. "Count It All Joy" with a hip hop flair mixed with funk and jazz comes from James 2: 1-2. When you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ you should love one another without judgment and favor towards one group over the other because of superficial worldly identifications. Christ paid the price for us all. "Count It All Joy" has an upbeat hip-hop swing to it that makes your head pop when you move with the rhythm. The song liberates and transforms your mind to war against the lies and seek the truth. 2. " Here We Go Again" is a beautiful ballad confirming where your strength and source is from. 3. Bless The Name of Jesus is a medium R&B groove with a Latin flair. Get your dancing on in the vamp. 4. Lord's Been So Good is a feel good song. It has some old school qualities of Mavis Staples in the melody with a funky urban sound. 5. The Prayer of Jabez from Chronicles 4:10 is a tribute to Marvin Gaye. The R&B rhythms with, the influence of Baba Kenyattaa on African drums, and Jesus Canales playing Latin percussion takes the prayer to praise. The vamp moves the praise into the spontaneous playing of Fostina improvising, releasing, and being free. This is Gospel music influenced by Jazz and R&B; it is soul stirring, upbeat, funky and you can dance and pop your fingers.
