Lead Vocals, Lead Guitar
It pains me to admit, but I’ve been playing professionally since the early 60’s. Bands with household names like Tom King and the Starfires (became the Outsiders of “Time Won’t Let Me” fame, The Chosen Few, The Originals, Fully Assembled, Rainbow Canyon where I got a little sniff of the “brass ring” as it went whizzing past my nose), The New Wave, Samsons, and finally, The Crowd Pleasers. I jumped from trumpet to guitar depending what was needed for the particular band. Through it all, I was a singer. It’s the thing I do best, and probably the only thing I do where I am totally confident and aggressive. I am not a timid singer. I’m going to give you everything I’ve got…every night. I might even surprise you and get through a few choruses on guitar without embarrassing myself. It’s exciting to explore a new idiom … the Blues.
