About Me

Born in the north of Sweden way back when cars still looked like cars, rock´n´roll was something evil, not to mention the blues. Took to the guitar in -69 something, copied every lick I could from rock´n´roll, rhythm´n´blues, country, blues, instrumental, surf records. For a VERY short time in the disgusting 80´s I had some stupid idea that I had to know hard rock/metal playing. ´Nuff said ´bout that! These days I´m happily married to my sweet Susanne and into the old real shit more than ever. And that goes for V8cars too. MOPOWER!
