"Time Gone Away" is an original solo bass piece I wrote during my years living in the Netherlands.

While I was there, I recorded a CD titled "Life This Time". This song is included on the CD in instrumental form. And my "Life This Time" CD is now widely available on the Internet. Downloads of individual songs from it are now also available.

"I'll Be There" is one of my favorite pop/soul songs of all time. Written by a talented team of songwriters for Motown Records, this song went on to become a huge hit for the Jackson Five from their 1970 LP release called "Third Album".

"Monkey Slide" is an upbeat, jazzy bass instrumental tune from my CD 'Life This Time'. The slideshow includes photos taken of me in the U.S. and Europe.

Bass is the instrument I adore to express my musical life.

BullFrogMusic Reviews July 14, 2008:

I liked Jerome Lee and his music as soon as I heard this Jazz/Funk/RnB/Soul release (his first, I think). The music just exudes a happy-live-and-let-live vibe that makes you want to hug the guy who made it all up.

Lee has had a peripatetic life having lived in many American cities, Japan and Europe. Like a lot of serious working musicians, he's worn a lot of hats in a lot of different milieus. I assume his well rounded resume accounts for the cosmopolitan, man-of-the-world atmosphere of this CD.

A musician who plays a supporting instrument (bass in this case) try to prove their virtuosity by lengthy, complicated solos. Lee is too much of a professional for that. His bass work fits right into the mix without trying to overpower anyone else on the stage. The seams are invisible and the listener isn't distracted by glaring bass passages. The production values are so good that you don't even pay attention to them; there's nothing that sticks out.

Lee's voice seems a little strained at times, as though he's singing a bit out of his range. But even this vocal style fits in with the overall feel of the release and no one but a voice nut like me would notice it.

The song lyrics are um, nice. There's nothing groundbreaking in subject matter or style, but they're still worth listening to over and over again. Lee speaks from the heart and you can tell he's sincere. Listeners should go to his site and read his descriptions of the songs; there's no canned PR blether; just honesty.

Lee is a master musician and songwriter. Why did he wait so long to produce his own CD?

Recommendation: Buy it.
