"Music - in my life".
Music has always been in my family, back in the 1960's I would hear the sound of my dad's 78's crackling away; he enjoyed The Beach Boys, The Beatles, Chuck Berry and the like, plus theme albums like "The Big Country". Over the years I've covered a few musical bases; guitar, keyboards and vocals in the main. The Hammond Organ and Leslie speaker won me over in my 20's, and I quickly 'lost friends' in bands because of the weight of Hammond's and Leslie speakers when taking to/ from gigs!
One night we emptied the Hammond out onto the ground at Telford's Warehouse and nearly into the canal in Chester...... other nights blue flash electric shocks spewed out across the stage in night clubs, where I would screen off dew drops from falling onto circuit boards by using gaffer tape and laminate in clubs on Wood Street in Liverpool, but that's another story. John has since gone on to perform across the globe in places like Oslo Norway, The Bahamas, Florida, California, Atlanta, Kiel Germany, Newcastle and Amsterdam.
From a guitar/ vocals and keyboards perspective, here's some tracks from over the years that I have created or contributed to myself:
3: "A to B"
6: "All at sea"
7: "Nothing on Mars" A short instrumental track (recorded in Bidston Observatory!).
8: "Prenton Relaxation" - Prenton Day Centre and Musicteam Limited.
9: "Music related experience" - Music technique and maintenance
