About Me
I turned my back on the music industry. Thank God!
I've had a great time living, travelling and experiencing. Music has always been in my heart but not my slavery. Forty years on and I'd like to share my songs and music and if possible some of my insights and life experiences. I was never a rock 'n' roll animal but I had a damn good time!
Johnny Wildboy and the City Centre Shakers
Hey Gord...do you know a bass player?...Yeh me! (I went and bought one)
Those Cucumber Shades
Ten gigs... a bunch of my best songs!...and I never really knew what I was doing. I just wanted to sing and give life to my songs!
Mixatic
Our friend built a room in his attic (loft). I promptly moved in with some guitars, synths, a cubase/atari sequencer and some unique ideas!
Bite and Gdansk
Trudged around the local clubs, playing cover versions at parties and weddings (on bass). Great experience but man!...they wouldn't take a tour of Europe. What a waste!
Five year Jam Session in Malaysia
Every weekend I had the freedom to play what I wanted. So I memorized a 100 rock 'n roll classics and learned to play lead guitar! Amazing learning experience ...thanks to my buddy Ben at the Living Room Cafe, Batu Ferringhi.
MUSIC
Listen ENJOY
Please appreciate some of my compositions below. DOWNLOAD my double album 'The Greatest Album Never Sold'. Includes 40 mp3 unique compositions never released before.
Are You Doin' Alright?
We were 'Those Cucumber Shades' and this is a magical composition. A song about evil money!
Melancholy Boy
Time for coffee on the workshop floor...i was signalling my intentions that one day I would break free. It worked :)
(It's getting hard to be the) Life and Soul
Sweet reggae style...Burzy come around with his new keys and made it jolly.
The Blood Of Arabia
Fantastic LIVE jam captured at our rehearsal room. We were 'Those Cucumber Shades' and I was on bass for this amazing impromptu jam.
Soul Motion
Ascension time 2012 was approaching. My friend asked me to write a song....something about a DNA upgrade.
Perfect Smile (I want your love)
A song I wrote and recorded in a kitchen studio in Perth Australia.
Money Doesn't Care
Recorded at 'Mixatic'...I was tired of rocknroll and discovered cubase sequencer...the rest is our history.
Anything Can Happen
Another gem from our 'Mixatic' sessions...this time co-wrote with Gaz Muldoon.
Lost soul
A 'Mixatic' song written about the man next door. Very creepy!
The Greatest Album Never Sold

Sometimes vicious!,...sometimes deep, sometimes quirky, often infectious poetry entwined with raw suburban musicianship. Ok...have I said enough?....from jaw dropping! guitar to jolly saxophone. You are in for a good old fashoined treat!
