Thanks for the kind words!

I will be doing a short Live PA tour of Germany with Gerd Janson next week. I will be at Bob Beaman in Munich on Friday the 21st, Robert Johnson in Frankfurt on Saturday the 22nd, and Panorama Bar on Sunday afternoon.


I like 12" singles, tape recorders, and old drum machines.
