"2008 I have released 4 new CD's, featuring 40 of my ORIGINAL SONG'S". #1 Beached in Paradise #2 Yeh, You're Sexy #3 White Clouds #4 Dreams & Wishes. Purchase all 4 CD's at: iTunes & Amazon MP3. Most of the songs I played all instrument tracks, and was the lead vocalist. Thanks to Kami, Linda, Eric, Chip, Dave & John who contributed on a few of the songs. I produced 3 of the 4 CD's.

My passion for Writing original music began 1971. Proudly- beginning 1999, my song writing began to accelarate. I have created 77 of my current 97 originals beginning 1999 - continuing today at my most creative pace ever.
