Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Well, that's a long story meanwhile given my older age :-)
I got interested in music kinda late in the 60's of the British Rock invasion. Started out with guitar, switched to drums & find finally home at bassguitar. I learned thru listening & playing-along the music of great Blues & Rock bands. Mainly self-taught, I developed & learned a lot by taking lessons on Double-Bass & bassguitar from excellent Jazz bassist & teacher Thomas Stabenow in Stuttgart, Germany.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes, I have...mainly at music cafe's, clubs, cultural centers, small festivals & others too.
