Waiting In Vain came about when Fabian Alsultany from Palm Pictures/Globesonic , asked me to re create some Bob Marley songs for a possible upcoming Marley covers album..the theme was to take his songs out of the regea idiom and re tell th stories. One of the songs I chose to do was "Waiting In Vain". Susheela Raman was in town around this time with her super talented guitarist and husband Sam Mills. We decided to get together and in one night we recorded the vocals and guitars.....I then took the recordings to Zakhms studio. It took a minute for us to find the space but soon we arrived and this version was born.

I have been studying the music of the Police and Sting since I was a kid.....I remember being taken by "Spirits" when I was about 7 years old...I had no idea what he was singing about yet found myself empowered by the chorus of vocals....so haunting yet so present...Recently Bob Duskis over at Six Degrees Records called me about a project commemorating the 10 years of Six Degrees records existance....A compilation of covers by there artists. I already decided I wanted to a Police cover and sing on it....I did this one with Yosi Fine (Exentric Sound System) who is a master of low end and sonics.....We just laid it all out in one night..It was fun to sing a song I have been singing almost all my life......I got to send it to Sting.....and he loved it....in his response he wrote " ..you sound like to know what you are singing about" ...I guess I finally got it.
