MY MUSIC CAREER STARTED BACK IN THE LATE 70'S AS A PERCUSSIONIST AND LEAD VOCALIST IN SEVERAL LOCAL GROUPS, I HAD THE GREAT PLEASURE OF TRAVELING OVERSEAS WITH A GROUP CALLED THE F.O.R.S.E ( FATHER,OUR,RHYTHMATIC,SAVIOR,ETERNAL ) IN THE 80'S IT WAS REAL SLOW FOR ME, BUT I HUNG IN THERE AND IN THE EARLY 90'S I MET A LOCAL PRODUCER WHO WAS WORKING ON A PROJECT WITH A YOUNG LADY IN THE STUDIO, HE BROUGHT ME IN FOR SOME BACKGROUND VOCALS AND I MET A BROTHER WITH SUCH A POWERHOUSE VOICE.AFTER WHILE ME AND THIS BROTHER PUT TOGETHER ONE OF THE HOTTEST LOCAL ACTS TOGETHER CALLED ( THE MEN OF SOUL ) AFTER A COUPLE OF YEARS TOGETHER MY PARTNER RETIRED FROM HIS JOB AND MOVED OUT OF TOWN. NO LONGER ABLE TO PERFORM ANYMORE I WAS BLESSED TO BE PICKED UP BY THE PERSUADERS AND WE ARE CURRENTLY ENJOYING OUR NEW CD TITLED ( MADE TO BE LOVED )
