RITCHIE DECARLO SOLO ALBUM! - Former Manatees drummer extrodinaire Ritchie DeCarlo has just released his very first solo album entitled "WEEK". It is a 10-song instrumental CD featuring an impressive cast of musicians including Percy Jones of Brand X. Ritchie's influences range from Billy Cobham to Frank Zappa to King Crimson. There is some great playing on this album and hopefully it will bring Ritchie the recognition that this talented musician deserves. The album was mastered at Abbey Road Studios in London, UK.
