Now this was a phenomenal year for me. In 1993 I had my first musical comedy play produced professionally in Miami with pretty big names acting and singing. I got to work with jazz great Arturo Sandoval who did some jazzy arrangements to my music and my songs which were included in the play. And it was the time of my favourite US president, Bill Clinton! It was a super year in many, many ways…
