Quote from John Mulhern, Studio Owner, Recording Engineer, Super Duperz Studio, Ventnor, NJ
"I am a guitarist and engineer and I have studied with Pat Martino and Dennis Sandole. I have played with everyone from Harry Connick Jr. to Sarah Vaughan and I know special talented musicians, I've been surrounded by them all my life... "Sandy" has that rare quality as a bassist-you can't explain it, you can't teach it, it's God given talent".
