Hey, errbody!! You can say I'm a devoted disciple of music from what I consider the most exciting time of modern music creation, the 1970's. Think about it, a lot of the music produced during that time was in a realm of uncharted territory. The boundaries were, make it sound different, but make it sound good. Bring in this idea, put it together with that idea and see what happens. Rock and Funk music was freedom captured on tape. And damn, was it good to ya! I'm not saying that mugs aren't coming up with cool sounds and vibes, I truly love SOME of the Hip Hop, Dance, Pop, Dub and Reggae music out there now. BURIAL and Lupe Fiasco to name a few. But, blast some of this stuff I spin and watch the heads nod and the hips shake! That 70's spirit comes back alive and well. Ain't no need in me lying, I love this music and really dig putting out there. So, why don't you come FIND ME and GET SOME for yourself?

My Interests

Writing and recording my own music, Steelers Football, getting rid of the current president, being outside and digging the park, dining out and giving thanks and praise.

I'd like to meet:

All lovers of 1970's music from all over the world and New Yorkers addicted to Funk & Roll! Let's vibe and trade wits. I'd also like to meet creative souls into Writing, Film Making, Music Production, DJing, Power Lounging, Comedy and let us not forget, The Making Of Money!
