Here's my homage to one of my favorite contemporary bassists, Rodney Whitaker. Nicknamed Big Money by Wynton Marsalis, Rodney played for years with trumpeter Roy Hargrove, whose recordings in the '90s were hugely influential for me. ​ The Left Side was the title of one of the tunes Roy wrote for the group, and it's inclusion in my title was an additional reference to the importance of this time in my musical development. ​ I tried to capture something of the spirit of that time in the composition, and the fact that Ron Blake was also a member of these important Hargrove ensembles added extra weight to the recording for me.

TYPE JOHN FRIES IN THE SEARCH BAR TO SEE ALL I HAVE TO OFFER. Thanks, John. Achy Breaky Heart is a song written in 1990 by Don Von Tress. First released in 1991 by the Marcy Brothers with the title Don't Tell My Heart, it was later recorded by American singer and actor Billy Ray Cyrus. The song is Cyrus's debut single and signature song. It became a crossover hit on pop and country radio, peaking at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topping the Hot Country Songs chart, becoming the first country single to be certified platinum. The music video for the song led to the explosion of the line dance into the mainstream. The song is considered by some as one of the worst songs of all time, featuring at No. 2 on VH1 and Blender's list of the 50 Most Awesomely Bad Songs Ever. However, it later became a cult classic.
