Beats the hell out of the mortgage business and the music is great! I thought I heard a little Gato Barbieri in there. Best wishes to you and Michelle and the gang.

I just recently met Papa Dave and his lovely wife, Michelle at their very impressive MDA Central Casting Studios located in the Northwest Arkansas Mall, Fayetteville, Arkansas...and all I can say is "WOW." I was very impressed with their facilities and equipment and the professional manner in which they run the business.
As a matter of fact, after listening to Dave play live in his impressive recording studio I knew I had found the mentor I have been seeking all these years. He impressed my with his quiet, yet highly professional manner, yes...but to hear him play live...that was what really convinced me that I had finally found that special someone who would finally take a personal interest in developing my innate musical talent that has been hiding inside my bosom all these years. I immediately signed up for voice and guitar lessons under his tutorship and can't wait to begin my first session with him very soon.
I'll leave a progress report here as we progress with my training, but I just know that I'm going to be in very gifted, talented hands from the get-go. I'm excited to be trained and coached by a master of the craft.
"Look out John Lee Hooker. Mover over B.B. King. They'll soon be a new kid on the block picking the blues with the best of them."

This is a very long awaited album for those of us who have enjoyed Papa Dave's music, for years, through the digital underground.
Certainly worth the wait and more enjoyable with every listen.
I'm hooked and eagerly anticipating the new release.

Hey Dave, We love the album that you signed for me. I wish you where still in my office paying those songs. That was a cool place to work. I mean who could be blessed enough to have you playing awesome music LIVE, while they are at work. Well now they could, with your album. But I got to have the real thing. I'll never forget the times we all had and lessons you and Michelle taught me. Priceless!Love you all. Love Angela

Hi Dad, You are awesome. I think it amazing that you still play sooooo great! Sometimes it takes my breathe away. You are an inspiration to a lot of young and old guitarists.
But you are an even better dad. Thanks for all you have put up with over the years.
I love you very much.

Dave, I was happy to hear the new CD and enjoyed it immensely. You should have done this years ago. I sent the pictures to the old Bellair band to give them a blast from the past. Keeping working. Continued sucess.
Love Chris

Papa Dave remains true to the `core' style of blues, one where the likes of B.B. King and George Bensen live, as can be heard in the haunting melodies of `On a Roll' and `My Girls'. It is clear that Papa Dave's World is one of hollow-body electric guitars, where strings are struck and twisted and pulled with a dedicated precision, only to be released at a predetermined moment in time...revealing a creation of new yet familiar progressive jazz licks, where imagination meets hard reality. It is interesting to note, that although an obvious `master' of the hollow-body experience, Papa Dave also brings a fresh and very exciting perspective to electric jazz, through `Bilderberg Blues' and `I'm coming home'. All in all, Papa Dave's work is a glimpse into a World where proficiency isn't just another word that's too hard to understand. For my part, I enjoy artists whose work ethic still gives guitar manufacturers a reason to get up in the morning. Great work, Papa Dave!!!

Papa Dave this CD is "awesome"! After hearing it for the second time is when I was really able to appreciate some great guitar riffs. Remenicent of maybe some older George Benson,Stanley Jordan, and Calos Santana. "it is what it is" is a fresh pop jazz mix. Sounds like it could be opening sound track for some cool movie.
