My Interests

I love photography and music more than anything and I'm lucky to have been able to combine the two producing album cover photography and promotional images for many of my friends bands and musical projects.

That's me when I was ,little!I'm also a percussionist and love to beat the skins at every opportunity!

I'd like to meet:



Why George Clinton of course!

Music:

I love Jazz, especially 60s Hammond organ grinding boogaloo, Soul, in particular, the MASTER: Donny Hathaway and the Godfather James Brown. Love going to gigs and love to see my talented friends playing. Check out my friend Greedy G from Newcastle. His excellent reggae/soul/latin podcasts are the tops!

Movies:

I don't really watch many movies, but this one looks pretty cool! And I love these guys too

Television:

Dark humour rools! Monkeydust, League of Gentlemen and The Message are wicked. Of course I love South Park, The Simpsons and Fururama too. Then there's the excellent SAXONDALE too:

I'm abit worried that it's based on my own washed-up, middle-aged life though!

Books:

Takes me years to read a book! Not that I'm slow or owt, short attention span, that's all! I do like VIZ comic and Private Eye.

Heroes:

The Master: Donny Hathaway, Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield, James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Jimmy Smith, Jimmy Mc. Griff, Jack Mc.Duff, Tito Puente, Mongo Santamaria and too many others to mention! I have two other heroes also, They are The Tastee Brothers! Two crazy trumpet players from the U.S. who play off the scale! They play almost so high that it's almost beyond the range of our hearing. But not quite! They are awful but you gotta hear them. www.tasteebros.com
