Sorry Famz.....

  I'm home,but I have been really sick..
my body shut down on me when I got back from Russia..my pressure went up (155/107),I had pains in my chest,paramedics came to my house and did an EKG..which was normal,so my doctor made me get a CT Scan to rule out a blood clot.
That was a scary experience..they had to give me an IV drip to shoot dye in my veins for a contrast CT Scan...so finally,after a few agonizing days,I have and a clean bill of health..my doctor said that I was suffering from stress and exhaustion.   He also said that I have been very lucky to retain the level of health that I have had with the added extra weight. I know I have been a healthy person my whole life,and if I don't do something,my health will go down if I don't get this weight off.   This weight feels like Satan on my back. Something will be done.Now.This is the last time I will ever mention my weight until I have done something about it. I will continue my diaries though..I'll just talk about something else..LOL   Anyway,I have been wanting to show you guys some pictures of my tours with Incognito.I have been truly blessed,(even though I hate to be away from Jazz),to see most of the world,because of my job as a singer with this band. DJGary in Atlanta has been after me for a long time to buy a digital camera and now that I have one it goes everywhere with me...even Walmart!(Yeah I've been once since I 've been home)   So here are some pictures from The Milan Blue Note,Turkey,and Russia...   More to come soon.. Can't wait to see my Detroit Famz @ Chene Park next week!!   Maysa

Dear Wonderful Maysa,
i'm an italian fan ( Naples ), sorry for "my" english but i hope that you understand.
it's the first time that i write to a famous person, and i'm not a teen ager ( i was born at your same year and month ) but you've got an incredible influence on me. before i sleep away i must listen (?) your songs ( " Out of the Blue "," Rain Drops", "Dangerous Summer Night" , " Deep Waters " and Beneath the Surface " are my favourite songs ) and when i hear your voice i feel a strange wonderful sensation.
i'm a guitarist, singer and songwriter but it's just an hobby.
i love the Bee Gees ( i was 10 years old when i heard their songs and now, even if i love jazz, the Gibbs are in my dna, and my son, 2 years old, already sings their songs, but he starts to learning your songs too), Maysa, Pat Metheny, Patti Austin, Incognito ( just with you ), Anita Baker, Antonio Onorato ( you don't know him but is an italian Metheny).
i would write so many things to make you feel what i feel...i will study the english ...sorry again
thanks for THE GREAT EMOTION you make me feel
love and peace, Gennaro.
