Thanks for Subscribing to my N1M Network

As a bass player for Swing Fever Big Band on board the Liberty ship USS John W. Brown sailing down the Chesapeake quite a few years ago.

Hello to all who have subscribed to my newsletter. I apologize for not getting this out sooner, but here it finally is!. I explained that I am playing in 2 big bands (19 and 22 piece) so I am just part of the rhythm section as the guitar player with the occasional solo. A few years back I started a solo career, mostly to play solo jazz guitar in restaurants, at cocktail hours, etc. From there I did a number of demo recordings to showcase my work. Many of which I posted here on N1M. I am grateful for the many encouraging comments from all around the world. I am humbled. Everyone has been very kind and supportive. It just proves that music is the universal language. I will keep posting some of my earlier work in addition to new recordings. I also have many photos from various bands, (some of me also playing bass). Anyway, thank you for your support. Stay safe. Musically yours, Barry E. Fry
