The FLAMING CAZADORS is my studio's A team rhythm section which includes some of the finest musicians in the world. On guitar we have Paul Warren of Rod Stewart. On bass is Bob Birch from the Elton John Band. On tenor is "honorary funk brother" Rocky Tatarelli a Detroit legendary horn player. Bobby Lewis plays guitar on "Already There." David Scott of K-Ci and Jojo plays guitar on "My Faded Soul" and "My Heart To Your Heart." I front this studio band as the vocalist, drummer, drum programmer, keyboardist, and wear the hats of producer and engineer. Hopefully during this year I will replace the current programmed drums with my real drums as my music is always a work in progress. My career as a drummer is well documented at my website www.jimmyhunter.com
