Rearranged Peter Gabriel's "Games without Frontiers" for a contest: http://www.indabamusic.com/submissions/show/20995 Take a listen. And cast your vote: I don't expect first place, but an honorable mention alone could jumpstart my pet project the Progressive Rock Academy. Thanks a lot.

Changed the text on my profile page greatly. For whatever purposes, follows the retired text. Professionally I have dwelt in the area of Software Engineering all my life. In Education, Industry, and Science (current status). I have not dwelt professionally in Music yet. That said, I am a composer since my teens. On 2007, my catalogue has circa 100 items of many genres (progressive rock, contemporary, piano solo, symphonic, etc.) A few works have been performed publicly, but not widel...

Marius! Thank you very much for the comment on "Son of Osmosis". Haven't had a lot of time to listen to everybody's stuff, but I did manage to spend some time with "The Masters". Very impressive work! Nice to find out you're getting back together... let me know when the reunion tour gets to the Boston area :) FTK

Marius: Reserected is an excellent piece. Funny thing most folks miss.. that immortality is a birthright.. We have an "Allan Edgar" and we call him Allan Edgar Poe.. which if you knew him you would understand how fitting it is.. Hope you are well. Thank you for your kind review.. Johnny

Thank you so much for your comments Marius! I am still making trips back & forth to the old home, so not quite settled yet.. but I have all the tools to make music at the new house, so it is a welcome break in the work of moving :) wishing you all the best my friend!

Hey, I wanted to let you know that I just posted a new song that I think you will enjoy. Not really very new though. It was written in 1847. LOL It's an old Christmas standard. O Holy Night (Cantique de Noel) http://soundclick.com/share?songid=8419088 Or just click the pic. ;) I hope I did the song justice. ;) I'd appreciate it if you could give it a spin when you get a chance and let me know what you think. Thanks for your support. :) Gordy

Happy Halloween!!! Do you want to hear something really scary? Of course you do! ;) New song posted called "Swampman Coming". Check it out when you get a chance but don't blame me for your nightmares! http://soundclick.com/share?songid=8288999 Or just click my pic and visit my page to hear it. Gordy P.S. I had to seriously rush the song to get it posted for Halloween so don't expect perfection. ;) I'm sure I'll wind up going back and working on this one in the future. Enjoy

Hey, How's it going? I've been pretty busy myself. I wanted to let you know that I uploaded a new song called: "Without You (Ballad of Dona)" It's actually a previously unpublished song written by my brother Paul back in the 80's. Don't let the title fool you. It's not your everyday ballad. ;) I'd appreciate it if you could take it for a spin when you get a chance and let me know what you think. http://soundclick.com/share?songid=8256877 I also have given "Slay the Dragon" a complete re-mix. If you liked it before I think you'll really like it now. Turned out pretty good if I do say so myself. I'd appreciate any feedback you can offer. All of my songs have been recently re-mastered for more dynamic range and a less fatiguing sound. Hopefully this will result in a more pleasant listening experience for all. More songs coming soon! :) Thank you for your support. Gordy

Hey, I just uploaded a brand new song called Saturday Night. This one is something a little different from me. No smoking guitar solo but plenty of other goodies. I think it turned out pretty good. :) I'd appreciate it if you would give it a spin when you get a chance and let me know what you think. http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7625917 Thanks in advance Gordy
