Welcome to my music! :) I use Steinberg's Cubase music creation software, my guitar and related hardware to record and create my music.

Enjoy!

Have you performed in front of an audience?

I certainly have played in front of an audience, I've been doing that since 1963-4 almost continuously until a few years ago.

I'm not playing live these days due to health issues (tremor in my right hand and arm) but I can still enjoy making music with Cubase.

Special moments? Backing Bo Diddley many years ago was alot of fun, what a character! Supported Elton John (trio) on his first Australian tour, man, he made that piano rock!

Supported Rolling Stones in Sydney and Brisbane on their '73 Australian tour, and btw, met and had a chat with 'Mick' which was interesting

Joined Australian band Fraternity when Bon Scott (may he rest in peace) was still the bands singer, before he joined AC/DC.

A few years ago I was inducted into the 'AMC South Australian Music Hall of Fame'

Your musical influences

My influences are very varied and wide. I love Sibelius (I'm a patriotic Finn ;)) in the classical genre but blues has always been my main influence, especially guitarists, such as Jeff Beck, Albert King, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jimi Hendrix, Peter Green, Carlos Santana, Jimmy Page.

What equipment do you use?

I used (and still have it) a Blackstar SeriesOne 45w combo for live playing and Cubase to compose and record my music. I record my guitar using Vox ToneLab interface or software amp emulations plus software synths/samplers to create the music and backing tracks.

Anything else?

I want to thank all those who have taken the time to listen to and comment on my efforts. Love to you all :) !
