Lao Tizer, Hans Zermuehlen and Walfredo Reyes Jr.

I hope you dig it.


"Better Than Never" Album

My first solo album “Better Than Never." I’m so proud of this record and truly grateful to all the musicians, engineers and people who were in involved with the making of it.

I believe at the core of this album is a message of love, hope and optimism.


"Rebel Road" Album

Writing with Edgar Winter for the first time was amazing. I walked into a room filled with keyboards and there was “Mr. Frankenstein” himself. He spun around and said “play me what ya got”. I was relieved he dug what I played and that was to become the opening riff to "Rockin’ The Blues", a song which features Edgar's brother and blues legend, Johnny Winter. All in all, Edgar, Curt and Myself co-wrote 9 songs for Rebel Road. The title track had a fourth songwriter, Jake Hooker and features Slash on Lead Guitar. It was a great privilege to meet and play with some of music’s royalty and some of the best musicians on the planet.


JZB Composer

JZB Composer is a series of 3 montages of instrumental music I have composed or collaborated on. There are cues from television and film as well as songs I’ve written for records. This music spans a range of musical styles influenced and inspired by and from the Jungles of South America to the Discos of New York and from the Depths of the Oceans to the Echoes of Space. Enjoy.


JZB Guitar Work

JZB Guitar Work is a montage of some session guitar work I’ve done. Included are rock solos, acoustic and slide work as well as jazz fusion. Over the years I’ve had a chance to record with some pretty cool artists and on this montage you’ll hear Slash, Edgar Winter, Clint Black, Abe Laboriel Jr. and Kenny Aronoff to name a few. See the Photo and Session pages to see pics of some of these artists and others during these recording sessions.
