I played pro guitar from the mid 60's to the mid 90's and was with a number of different genre bands. I was a founder member of a blues band called Black Leb (voted best blues band in North London at the London Blues Fest in '69). I also had two bands formed by myself, Liquid & Sufi around that time, both three piece blues/rock bands. I later joined a five piece Chicago Rock band called BBA. When that band split I joined up with Spunky Spider for a while. I eventually went solo and sessioned around North London at the same time embarked on a new venture in Electronic Music composing short 2 minute ditties for whom ever needed them. I started playing guitar again around 2000'ish after a long long break and now just enjoy what I am doing. My main love has always been electric and acoustic blues but I will try my hand at almost anything so long as it has good musical content and integrity.

Not for a long time, the biggest audience for me these days would be 4 or 5 friends. I do miss the live gigging sometimes though.

The tunes and musical ideas that I present here are pretty much as it happens. What you hears is what you gets, warts and all.
I try to keep things light, not to much of the 'Deep' and 'Broody' stuff. But, always maintaining my respect for the genre and fellow artists.
I hope that you all get something positive from my efforts. So pull up a chair, kick off those boots, chill and enjoy.
