My Interests

I'd like to meet:

well, considering that i work for my heroes rick richards, rick price and tommy rivers, who else would i want to meet? i am at the top of the game, although one day i want to meet stu gibson in manchester. this guy is the real deal.i have been very very fortunate to be able to call rick richards, rick price and tommy rivers my friends, my bosses and my heroes for almost 20 years. these are the guys that made me want to become a musician and here i am working for them as an archivist. unfettered access to their archives, i feel like a kid in a candy shop. very soon i hope to get these guys the long overdue recognition they deserve.
