John Lennon Birthday Tribute! Please SHARE the love!

Clearly, John Lennon was (and is) my most influential artist.  I spent my childhood mesmerized by him and my adulthood studying his artistry in song structure.  This recording is the result of deconstructing Dear Prudence with Walter Watson.   All of the tracks are performed solely by the two of us.  Walter did an amazing job on all of the vocal parts.  I handled all of the bass and guitar duties. Man....did we have a good time in the studio!   Thank you, John and Happy Birthday!

Throw Back Thursday!

As an artist I always want to be moving forward but I know that #TBT is fun and nostalgic for everyone so....here's a live performance of Home Again - the second song I ever wrote.  Please enjoy a little walk down memory lane.  #ThrowBackThursday 

This video was shot at The Granada Theater in 2007 with my son, Rocky II, on bass and original Lightning singer and drummer, Walter Watson.     We were just having some fun!
