and Dean and visited Japan in 1995. And then whenever Marcus has Japan tours in 1996, 97, 98, 99, 2001 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, Patches visited with him, that is one and only member. During Marcus' tour all over the world, Patches released his solo debuts album called "Blue Patches" in 1997 and 2nd solo "Penetration" in 1998 and joined some great aritist recordings, for example, David Sanborn, Lenny White, Earth, Wind, & Fire and so on. Patches also have some tours for Babyface, Diana Ross and the Supremes, and Rickie Lee Jones. In September 2001, joined recording "Happy People" by Kenny Garrett. Now Patches is great artist of 3 Deuces Records where Marcus is. Finally 3rd solo called "Blow" was produced by Marcus released in Japan on October 15th and USA later.
