This page is at present a compilation of demos I have made over the years. Most of these songs are published through my publishing company "hitest publishing" SOCAN and are available for co-publishing if there is interest in re-recording from other artists for commercial release. More will be added in time. Hope you like the songs.

Otis Redding, the Association- 5th Dimention - early Stones - Donovan -Dylan-Beach Boys-old blues and country- folk- and a lot more
What equipment do you use?
I have used more equipment than I can remember. A large portion of these songs were recorded on a Sony TC630 sound on sound. A small portion I used a Fostex R8 with SMPTI time code and midi, and a smaller portion done in commercial studios. As a multi instrumentalist I played most of the parts. That was affordable.

The lyrics are pure genius! O, I remember, I wrote those! It was recorded on the Stallion Thumrock's A & M album in '72. Still catchy after all these years, thanks DB for including in your archives.
