Down By The Lake Shore Down By The Lake Shore
Written to the love of my life while I was away on business for 2 weeks.

Don't Look Back Don't Look Back
Song I started writing back in 1984 and just recently decided to put down on hard disk. About an old girl friend named ...well maybe I shouldn't say. :o)


I am a singer/songwriter from Garner Texas, close to Dallas Fort Worth (Garner is the place where the domino game "42" was invented, That's Garner's only claim to fame that I know of). I've been playing music since about 1962. I've written/ and co-written a few songs, which I/we are going to be putting on the NET and am working on several more. Hope you like the style!
Band/artist history
I grew up in Texas and as a kid Jammed with my cousins, brother and friends around the Mineral Wells Area. At age 19 thru 23 I went to California then Hawaii and back to Ca., and picked with some very interesting people. Since coming back to Texas I've been in several bands, Tejas, Spring Fever and Bounty to name a few. Presently I am solo.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I haven't played live on a serious basis in years although I occasionally sit in if asked. I love performing on stage, It's exciting especially when the crowd is into it, I could play and sing all night. I enjoy being in my home studio pretty much these days.
Your musical influences
I guess I have a wide variety of influences. Beatles, Neal Young, Eagles, Zepelin, Mark Knopler, Willie, Waylon, Merle Haggard, Alabama, Beethoven, Lynyrd Skynyrd. See what I mean?
What equipment do you use?
A Conn Accoustic Guitar, a Taylor 410 accoustic, a bass, a Yamaha electric guitar, a Yamaha keyboard and Cakewalk Sonar.
