    About Me: My completely solo all original music, I would have to classify as Surf, psych, Rock, Electronic, Spaghetti Western and many other weird elements. Mainly instrumental, but a few vocal tracks, when my voice is up to it. I am a photographer by profession, otherwise, I would starve!Ha Ha
    My Websites...

    iTunes
    Napster
    Amazon
    Band Members Myself on guitars, bass, synths, vocals & various drum machines. I do not use computer software at all... Recorded digitally on 8-track. Some of my pieces are works in progress.... Tone, rhythm & melody, using as few notes as possible These are some of the key elements that I strive for. Like soundtracks to movies--sometimes only a couple of notes are needed to evoke a feeling. That's my excuse anyway.....Played guitar for decades...I played the horendous working men's club circuit in Liverpool and Manchester, England many moons ago. I was in bands that played only cover versions of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who etc, etc. If we tried to play anything of our own, we would get bottles, cigarettes, meat pies (no panties though), thrown at us. It was purgatory, all in the past. Now I just play my own tunes, The Good, The Bad, and the Friggin' Ugly! So there it is........You can get my stuff in on- cdbaby.com, iTunes, Soundclick, Rhapsody and dozens of indie Web music sites for a mere pittance-I need a little bread, maaan to pay for my equipment. Screw corporate bull**** suits! Thanks for you intergalactic support!
    Influences Many, many unsigned experimental heros. Also---Wishbone Ash, The Shadows, Pink Floyd, Gary Numan, Aqua Velvets, Iron Maiden, Hawkwind, Tangerine Dream, The Atlantics, Slacktone, The Surf Kings.
    Sounds Like Some of the above and sooo much more (or less). Sounds like--An aural extravaganza of bizarre sounds rushing through my brain, the by-product of decades of listening (voluntarily and involuntarily) to a plethora of strange sounds, on this planet and several others.
    Do it for love of the music genre, not my day job.I have 10 cds out, but nowadays 95percent of sales is mp3, which is great for me 'cos I don't have to keep making so much cd art.
    Music: My music is on these sites, amongst others, if you care to listen.
