Acoustic rock and folk rock with country, blues, and American Songbook influences.
Formerly "Dr. C and the Stratocats," I'm now on a solo career as "Dr. C," but I had to change my stage name here because someone else had already claimed it. My music strives for melody above all else; I strive to make my songs memorable, so you can whistle a tune immediately. I see melody as the element most lacking in contemporaryr music. I love Sinatra and the Beatles, Gordon Lightfoot, Paul Simon, anyone who can write a memorable "tune."

Story behind the song
I was fed up one day as a doctor working in an industrial clinic where the owner was too cheap to buy hand soap so I quit and wrote this song. Recorded live and rough.
Lyrics
I Can't Take this sh** No More Crouched around my smoke-filled room Rabid dogs bark at the moon Corporate vultures suck my blood Tax men grab me by the nuts I can't take this sh** no more, I can't take this sh** no more Torture me--torture me—torture me—torture me. Mother would not let me play Father would not pay my way Brother told me I was bad Sister called me a naughty lad I can't take this sh** no more, I can't take this sh** no more Torture me--torture me—torture me—torture me. Cancer's gnawing at my bones By the ringing telephones Higgedly-Piggedly zombies roam Dripping pus and surfboard foam Haunted faces in rear view mirrors Life dissolving into tears Cut my brain with pinking shears I can't take this sh** no more, I can't take this sh** no more Torture me--torture me—torture me—torture me.
