After a tumultous brief 10 year caeer in the Music biz backing up some of the greatest legends of Rock and Roll-Drinking took over finally bring me to my knees in  1976. I entered recovery and stopped drinking then. However the real battle was about to begin. Many very disturbing emotional and mental issues handicapped every move I made including the destruction of my marriage and every relationship I tried to form

Only after a sting on a Psych ward and massive surgery in Therapy was I able to step out into the world again and become a Journalist, Communications Directors of the local Real Estate Industry Branch and finally begin writing my book in 1987.

I returned to the Music Industry in 2008 after the deaths of three siblings all younger than I. wHY? BECAUSE IF i WAS GOING TO DIE i WOULD DO SO LIVING Music and creativity was my  first Passion and still remains so.

I am re-married now going on 15 years to my wife Judy. Just completed and finished my first Book entitles Lay my guitar down Gently via Xilibris.
