Propulsion, the first single from Open Invitation, made a pretty decent dent in Billboard and got the support of reporting stations, and now it is on to number 2!
I know I have asked you to weigh in on a second single pick before, but I am here again asking for a another listen to decide the final round.... There are many songs to like, but what song fits the radio format best?
COUNT ME IN seems to get a lot of love all 'round, but INIT2WINIT seems to have similar or maybe better attributes, like slick guitar, and horn tradeoffs. It is punchier and sounds alot like summer, and besides also adding sax, it has slightly more exciting solos throughout.
We are down to only these two, and are aiming for a July 15 Going For Adds date, so please cast your vote once again! Respond to gmh@gabrieljazz.com

Gabriel's latest single 'Ready When You Are' is climbing the Billboard charts and it will be his third Billboard charting track from his latest release Kissed By The Sun, and his fourth under his own name. He has another half dozen as featured artist on tracks by artists such as Paul Hardcastle, Bob Baldwin, Rob Tardik, and Steve Oliver .
The award winning multi-horn maestro Gabriel had the pleasure to tour extensively this last year in support of his third Billboard charting track 'Lock It Up' (which stayed on Billboard 15 weeks and most radio charts for nine months), and now his newest single 'Ready When You Are' is up on Billboard, too! Gabriel has spent more time on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz charts than any other Canadian performer, and has won Album of the Year and Instrumentalist of the Year Awards, as well as a JUNO (Canadian equivalent to a Grammy). He also has two straight ahead releases, one of which made a long stay on Jazz Week...
He has developed a really rocking show, full of contemporary and mainstream jazz content, and has played from California to Detroit, with lots of stops in between. He succeeds in keeping audiences pumped and enthralled. This spring he played three shows during the New Orleans French Quarter Fest including Mahogany Jazz Hall, then went over to Orlando and Ft. Lauderdale, and then on to a Freeport, then on to Phoenix, then Las Vegas for the City of Lights Jazz, Rhythm & Blues Festival where he performed with the fabulous Nick Colionne. A bit later in the summer he will be performing at the Jazz On Blue Mountain Fest in Ontario for his own show, and also as guest on the Gino Vanelli show, then as part of the Canadian Brass and Steel Show with Rob Tardik-guitar, Walle Larsson-saxes, and GMH-trumpet, flugelhorn, flute, at the The Lyric Theatre in Winnipeg.
