13. As the Assistant Band Director/ Musical
Arranger. I loved working with the young
people..

14. Then came Synthesizers,Samplers,Drum
Machines,and Portastudios in 1985..I
then had the power to not only compose..

15. But I could also play all of the parts
and record them

16. And I did..and loved it.

17. Mob Style Records ran into legal issues which
suspended signing with a major label shortly
after the release of the album..I was crushed..

18. So I quit..

19. Four years ago a couple of my friends who have made a
name for themselves in the industry was in town for a
benefit concert. I was invited down to “sit-in” with them.
