Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I stated playing guitar in 1971. Only because my father wouldn't get me a drum set. Back in the 70's and 80's guitar work was at it's pinnacle. Some of the greatest guitarists of all times emerged fron those two decades. After a dozen bands and ten years of cover tunes I decided to forgo the "Live Experience" for an in home studio environment.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
No live dates, an occasional entertainment/jam session.
Your musical influences
Deep Purle, Wishbone Ash, Ten Years After, Captain Beyond, Pink Floyd, Allman Brothers, in the 70's. SRV, Vai, Satriani, Yngwie in the 80's.
What equipment do you use?
Very simple rig. Fender, 96 American Standard, into a Zoom 505, into a Ibanez DM500 digital delay into a Univox 50 watt all tube amp, into a Tascam MK III 4-track
Anything else?
Long Live Lead Guitar !!!!!!!!
