Well, Bill is out in the LA area and has 3 (yes 3) children born in about a 
4 year period or less and is pretty busy at home these days, but he is still 
out running around and recording.  He just made a recording the other day 
for something "smooth jazz" and he is just announcing his second CD release 
with his group the Mentones.  Here is some info on it:
