mr. RAY's Wife Writes Song For NY Yankee Bernie Williams

I wanted to share with you to look out for New York Yankees 
center fielder, Bernie Williams' 
debut guitar album release, The Journey Within.
My wife, Patti Maloney, has a co-written a song with her writing partner, 

John Denicola, on it entitled, The Way.

Although you may think me biased for saying this, 

Bernie's talents unequivocally go beyond the ball field!
His guitar playing is sensational and heartfelt.
The style is light Jazz peppered with Salsa rhythyms.

CD101.9 FM has already started playing the album which features incredible session musicians

as well as renaissance man, Ruben Blades.

We just returned from a 4 day trip to Chicago (what a town) 
where Bernie had his official record release party.
He and his band played a sparkling live set.
We also got to go to the All Star Game and Home Run Derby, too.
An amazing time - I'll post pictures on my site shortly.

Bernie's CD, The Journey Within, is in stores everywhere.
Patti's track is the second one.
You can listen to her song, as well as others on Amazon,
and order it there, of course.
If you do purchase it, we thank you kindly.

George Harrison-A Fan's Appreciation by mr. RAY

*    *    *    *    *    *

On August 9th, 2001, mr. RAY was taped for a Good Morning America segment...
The segment was PETS & THEIR OWNERS.
They asked mr. RAY to play songs related to animals, specifically domestic pets.
One of the songs mr. RAY sang, was his tune, "I'd Be A Dinosaur"...
Not really a domestic pet song, you say -- BUT in this case he 

performed the tune with a live IGUANA ON HIS SHOULDER. No kidding!

a note from mr. RAY...

Hello-
First off, I want to thank those of you from the bottom of my heart, 

for coming into Midtown NYC,

midday to support me! Many of you have expressed that you

read the email late, or that you were away...
It was a great adventure to be at the ABC-TV Times Square studio, 

with folks on the outside checking it out, too.

Thanks for your continuing interest...
Love,
mr. RAY
