Mad Duran "Over the Years"

One of our favorite photos by photographer Henry Diltz. We love to cook, both in the kitchen and on stage. "Hey, don't get that beurre blanc sauce on my sax!"

A favorite photo taken by one of our adoring fans when we came back to the Bay Area to perform during our stint in NYC.

"The Three Musketeers"… Dean Reilly, Eddie Duran and Benny Barth. One of Eddie's favorite promo photos, done for their album, Ginza, recorded for Concord Records.

Backstage after a performance at the Sacramento Art Museum. The nice guy in the middle is bassist, Richard Saunders, a member of our happy jazz family.

Just trying to sell my music… of course, being "coy" has helped us get a few gigs over the years.

Eddie would not be outdone! After seeing how great I looked in royal blue, he grabbed my blouse, earrings and necklace and one-upped me! "You're not the only one who can look like a million bucks all dressed up!"

Our photographer, Toshihiro Suzuki, had the great idea that a bit of wine would make the photo shoot go more smoothly. It did for me, but I'm not sure it had the same affect on Eddie.

One of my favorite photos of Eddie, taken by photographer Alice Su in New York.

"What, give up show biz after clawing my way to the top?" As you can probably tell from the way he plays, Eddie's a real tough guy.

This stunning photo was taken a few days after we moved to Greenwich Village. Yes, it's true… I'm the photographer in this one and that lovely backdrop is the wall of our apartment. I propped our Kodak camera up on a tri-pod, set the timer, hurtled all the instrument cases in high heels, snuggled up to Eddie and plastered that smile on my face in just 10 seconds. Impressive, eh?

A terrible picture of a fabulous group. What we lacked in promo materials, we made up for in talent. This is a pack of some heavy hitters in jazz: Al Plank, Larry Grenadier, Eddie Duran, Mad Duran and Vince Lateano.
