Old rock band guy from the '60s. Bass player mostly in bands. Play guitar, piano & mandolin for fun. These recordings are things I've made at home.

I'm a semi-retired musician who has been playing music since the 1960s. I have mostly played bass in the bands, but I also play guitar, mandolin & piano.

Story behind the song

I have always loved fingerpicking-style guitar.  Chet Atkins, Merle Travis country style, and Segovia, Leona Boyd and Christopher Parkening on classical.  When I found music adapting classic ragtime piano to fingerstyle guitar, I couldn't resist.
