I write music but leave the live performances to the 'youngins' these days; they have more "N.R.G." and still enjoy humping gear around.
I started playing guitar in 1973. Then began playing keyboards and toured with a couple of small bands in the 80's (Didn't we all?). Wrote, contributed to, and performed mostly our own material, with the odd cover thrown in here and there, for good measure.
I had to quit playing guitar recently after breaking one of my fretting fingers. Now do everything in 'Reason' (ver.13).

Yes...Yes...Yes...Really enjoyed this one. Great groove bass, excellent changes. Lot's of interesting energy. Kickin' guitar work. The bridge took me back to mid 70's prog rock. Well done.
Cheers,
Al
