    MonoNeon was Prince’s last bassist he worked with in the studio. He made an album with Prince which I hope will be heard one day.

    Been a fan of Eric's since he was a very young man. Prison may have locked his body for a few years, but he came out 20k times the musician. He is the real deal all the rest of the guitarists in the world wish they were. He is Rock and roll come full circle. This is one of those times I feel he has finally met another musician of his same caliber... I hope to hear more from these two

      I love the discipline that mono has in respect to building the music. And i feel that mono shined a lot here, even in a more compressed form he was able to address feelings and complexity in a way that challenges even Eric extended soloes. As a matter of facto the duet grows so much that could fit no problem as a track in a great jazz album, or some unseen future musical genere, so to speak IMHO e ciao a tutti
