Influences: I'd like to start by saying my top 4 friends here at myspace are: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr (aka The Beatles). Their brilliant album "Magical Mystery Tour" was the first piece of music I recall listening to at the age of 6. That was a huge life shaping event that occurred at that early age.

When it comes to my tracks I write about alot of different subjects and I will briefly describe the 3 tracks I have up here at my site:
"AND YOU WANT TO BE KING" 2:48 from "It's A Complicated World"[GUITAR BASED TRACK]
'A track about the lack of modesty so often found in today's society,some people aren't content with being a "Peasant" or even a "Prince",they have to at (all costs) be "KING".'
"I'LL NEVER BE THE SAME" 4:10 [KEYBOARD BASED TRACK]from "Some Recordings..."
'In life you never know what's around the corner-you never know when "Something From Space"(A Metaphor)might reach out and grab you changing you forever and when you're changed forever-you'll "Never Be The Same".'
"LYING THERE DEAD" 3:18[GUITAR BASED TRACK]from "Some Recordings..."
'All the horrible crime stories I've seen on the news throughout the years inspired me to write this one and it's one of my personal favourites.'
I'd also like to describe all the tracks on my two cd's("It's A Complicated World"and "Some Recordings...")
DESCRIPTION OF TRACKS ON "IT'S A COMPLICATED WORLD":
"AND YOU WANT TO BE KING" 2:48 from "It's A Complicated World"[GUITAR BASED TRACK]
'A track about the lack of modesty so often found in today's society,some people aren't content with being a "peasant" or even a "prince",they have to at (all costs) be "KING".'
"IT'S A COMPLICATED WORLD" 4:36 from "It's A Complicated World"[GUITAR BASED TRACK]
'Finding a place to fit into in this ever changing "complicated world" "in which we live in" can be difficult for many people and quite frankly it can "leave you feeling jaded and torn".'
"A BLACK SPOT ON HUMANITY" 4:50 from "It's A Complicated World"[KEYBOARD BASED TRACK]
'A track about genocide-someone in Germany in the 1930's and 40's was able to get alot of people to assist him in wiping out almost all of this race's population in Europe.
His/these actions along with all the other genocides that have occurred throughout human history have permanently put "A Black Spot On Humanity" to be perfectly honest with you.'
"SHE MEANS ALOT TO HER FRIENDS AND FAMILY" 5:49 from "It's A Complicated World"[KEYBOARD BASED TRACK]
'A track about a girl I met,she was and I imagine still is completely dedicated to leading the vegan lifestyle and was interested in working with children-I wasn't able to get a relationship going with her but there was no doubt in my mind that this girl ,well "She Means Alot To Her Friends And Family".'
"THE GOOD DEEDS" 6:59 from "It's A Complicated World"[KEYBOARD BASED TRACK]

'I was thinking about some "bluesman"(no one in particular) who was the innovator of all these great guitar licks and song styles but he never got the credit he deserved-other people used his ideas and made a lot of money and achieved fame as well.'
"IT'S THE DAY'S END" 2:55 from "It's A Complicated World"[KEYBOARD BASED TRACK]
'The sun had definitely set when I composed this one-there's a certain feeling you get at the end of the day and I tried to capture it in this one.'
