TORTOLA BVI
IDEAS FOR BOOK IV:
Our trip to Tortola British West Indies is told in word pictures and music—not carefully scripted--just an outpouring of verbal and musical images. This mountainous, verdant, uncrowded island with its steep, challenging hills overlooking the Caribbean Sea, is our other home.
Aye YOH, as my maternal grandmother would often say, meaning so many things. DOLL LADY describes the lovely femininity on that Island, from my point of view. I played keyboards and percussion on both those island-flavored pieces.
My cousin, Jina Billups-Pearce sings QUiet SPACE accompanied by my keyboards. Of all my compositions, I chose to play this one for the Caribbean-born, famous percussionist, producer Ralph MacDonald when I got a one-on-one chance to audition for him. He loved it! ʼʼAll it takes is one,ʼʼ he said proudly, gazing around the room in his mansion.
On Sunday, September, 8th, thanks to my literary agents at WRITER’S BRANDING, my novel, THE OTHER SIDE of TOMORROW will be reviewed in The New York Times Magazine.
