Steve Knight from Flipsyde came to Jason’s home studio and recorded “We Are One” with all his heart. Jason’s brother Ehren and his friend and band mate, Matt Easton spent an afternoon singing the beginning stages of “Hold On To Love” for a demo, even before the words were complete. Musicians/students from San Francisco State came to play some early stages of classical pieces and it was just beautiful. It was two early morning, rainy days and it was thrilling. Shota came along and rounded up an orchestra, went to Bulgaria to orchestrate while we watched Jason and Dan direct their playing. Jason always has the last word, but sometimes Dan brings him around and that’s always funny. It was such fun to watch Jason and Dan, who is fastidious, (I think even more than Jason) and loves Jason’s music, work together until they were satisfied. And we can add Dan Alvarez and Gary Rosenberg to that list, who both worked for him in any way they could to help with funding, setting up musicians, co-producing and anything else required at the time. Beginning with his buddies, Mike Bemesderfer and Dave Lopez, who are always there to encourage him and do anything in their power to make what he envisions possible. Starting with Jason, who had the vision and created songs he had thought about for so long some songs were intricately planned and carried out, some songs evolved and changed, some were a surprise.Īs I have noticed through the years, whenever Jason has a project, he attracts the best people to help him. I was there and I find it hard to believe. It’s a little hard to imagine how much work, talent, discipline, love of music, sleepless nights, decisions, angst, patience and nerves were involved with the process.

Jason’s mother, Pat Becker, shares her memories and thoughts about Triumphant Hearts.Īfter watching so many years of hard work and focus on this music, it was very exciting to finally see it come out for the world to hear at last.
BECKERS ANGELS REST TV
I am so grateful to everyone involved with the making of this album, yet I couldn’t be more disappointed that not one national TV show wanted to tell the story, and one year later, my focus is more on healing than celebrating. I couldn’t be happier with the music, and how my closest fans and friends received the album. Rest in Peace.Jason Becker looks back at Triumphant Hearts. We weren't prepared to say goodbye yet, but God had other plans. And Christmas in Flagstaff when Ro was a baby. Our week in San Diego many years ago was another fun one. He had the best time on that trip! I remember him chair dancing to the music while sitting with Tait at the bar by the pool. "Will never forget our cruise to the Caribbean and how funny Glenn was about the "top shelf" all inclusive package. Al passed in 2012 after service as an Army medevac pilot. I have many fond memories of all the laughter when Glenn & Drew were at our house. and then went to Vogelweh School 1959-60 when our dads were stationed at Ramstein AFB and Sembach AFB in Germany. "My brother Al Bazzarre Jr was best friends with Glenn and Drew when our dads were stationed at Keesler AFB 1958-59. Larry and I married 1966, and lost track of the Duffy family in 1968, after Walker AirForce Base, NM closed. Glenn graduated from RHS 1964 Larry Loy and Drew Duffy RHS 1965. Also, they all played basketball at the Beckers many days a week. I certainly remember those tall boys in their VW. There is a story or two Larry would have shared with all of you. I recall an older brother, Jerry, that attended college at New Mexico Military Institute ( NMMI), Roswell, NM. Loy, was good friends with Glenn and Drew in high school. The Duffys were my neighbors from 1963-1966 - Roswell, Chaves County, New Mexico. "First to the Duffy family my heartfelt condolances for your great loss.
