PRsings
I am really a songwriter. I spent many years playing in all kinds of bands, and have worked extensively as a single act. I spent 13 years in Memphis where I was known for my harmonica playing. I play guitar and sing, but wouldn't call my self a "guitar player", I've known guitar players. I accompany myself on guitar. I have only recently started to record and work with computer music. I will be posting them as I learn. If anyone wants to "cut" any of my songs, feel free to contact me at the email after my lyrics.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Later
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Not anymore, I used to love it, but I'm too old for moving equipment LOL and I don't want to have to show up on time any more.
Your musical influences
The first music to captivate me was Roy Orbison's "Only The Lonely" I have so many favorites, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Garth Brooks, Carl Perkins, The Rolling Stones, Willy Nelson, Guy Clark, The Eagles, Lyle Lovett, Muddy Waters..... This would be a long list if I tried to name them all.
What equipment do you use?
A collection of odds and ends. Computers, a lot of music software, my trusty rack with effects and a clean power amp. Some keyboards to input midi, and five guitars. I still write a lot on my old Guild that taught me everything. I bought it new in 1968.
Anything else?
I'm a veteran of the Marine Corp, earned college degrees in education and psychology and while majoring in fine art. I still paint and draw a bit but wish I had studied music. I guess we never know where life will take us.
