All of these songs are available for download on BandCamp for a pretty low price.

There's some gospel, and some rock 'n' roll in addition to plenty of blues uploaded on BandCamp. I will be adding additional recordings every once in a while so check every 2 or 3 weeks or so. Here's what is there as of this writing:
WE ARE ONE is a Ross original gospel song about peace, love, and hope. It was written to remind people that war is usually NOT the answer. It was originally released on Fountainbleu Records in 2004 along with 3 other songs on an EP entitled What Are We Fighting For?

BADA BING is an original rocking blues song that has a catchy chorus that is a lot of fun to sing along to. It also has some funny lyrics about gangsters & mobsters.

IF I HAD KNOWN got a lot of airplay in the NY & NJ area when it came out originally in 1991 on Rockin' The Rails, take a listen and see why. It was rereleased in 2002 on Sleight Of Hand on Fountainbleu. George Morales and Charlie Torres work their magic on drums and bass.

IT HURTS ME TOO is probably the best slide playing the Robert Ross Band ever recorded, and the vocal ain't bad either. The track was released on Rockin' The Rails on Blue Planet Records in 1991 and re-released on Sleight Of Hand on Fountainbleu in 2002. George Morales on drums, and Charlie Torres on bass also kick ass. Check it out here: https://robertross1.bandcamp.com/track/it-hurts-me-too

AVE MARIA is not usually the kind of material blues, rock, and jazz guitarists are attracted to but this song is way too beautiful to ignore. My friend and producer Rafael Alvarez suggested that I record this piece as an instrumental on slide guitar so with his help and with the help of my other good friend and producer Larry Hambrecht, I did. Jim Holton on piano, and Mike Boone on acoustic bass. friend and producer Larry Hambrecht, I did.” Jim Holton on piano; and Mike Boone on acoustic bass.
