I've got one of his former students. Joe taught him how to make really nice
chord solos - it was a good skill to continue building on - he knows his stuff!

I grew up in Massapequa & took lessons from him when I was in High School.
Unfortunately at first I was not into learning Autumn Leaves but I came
around(almost) eventually. I could have got alot more out of it at the time but
I was into the rock thing. Ray's really a cool guy. Would love to see him again
some time. Small world.
Hey, Sly,
I had the pleasure and honor of studying with Joe for 4 years or so in
the '70's. He actually 'gave' me his spot in a wedding band he
regularly played with and that turned out to be a great experience.
He was (and I'm sure still is) a wonderful teacher with a lot of
patience, a good sense of humor (with me, he needed one) and always
willing to help his students. His playing just blew me away every time
I saw him. In the last year or so I tracked him down through this
group (do a search for him) and someone clued me into where he could
be found. It was great talking with him again and hearing how well he
was doing.
If you do run into him, give him my very best.

Yeah, I knew Brian back then fairly well although when
I finally met up with him out on the road years later he didn't know me. It was
really an amusing day. Had to be there.
