The scope of what we consider rock and Roll shouldn't be limited to groups of four or five dudes with long hair and guitars. Heavy metal is rock -- so is Motown. We can break it down into as many sub-categories as we want or need, but we have to remember what rock and roll is.
Dean Jay wants to bridge the gaps of rock and roll.

Why this name?
Dean Jay is just me - Dean Jay Robinson.
Do you play live?
Years ago, I played in the bands the Finns and Big Black Banana. I'm talking way back in the late 1980s in Bloomington, IN. No offense to any current bands that may be using those names.
