Beautiful Human Guitars
I have the ability to play guitar in many styles, yes, but I love to do instrumentals featuring my guitar family as beautiful, emotional testaments.
Anyone can play fast scales like a monkey typing the Bible.
Not everyone plays with feeling.
I do. Click the art to go to my Bandcamp site.

This was a commission for a theme song to a new kid's show from 1995 that never got produced. But I wrote a catchy song anyway so I thought I'd restore it and as a bonus, record a funk instrumental version of it as well. So here they are!

A Grandparent's Love Is Forever
A Grandparent's Love Is Forever
My student Lori J. suggested we compose a song for all the grandparents out there - so we got her two grandchildren Charlie and Jayden to write lyrics that inspired them about their grandparents. We wrote and performed the music, and it's sung with beautiful voice of Michele Cooney!
Listen to the lyrics from a 10 year old girl and a 16 year old sporty boy and your faith in humanity will be restored.
And if Michele's voice doesn't bring you to tears, you just aren't really listening. Click the art!

A Grandparent's Love Is Forever
¡Ahoy, perras malvadas!
I am Italian/Sicilian (like Chick Corea, who wrote "SPAIN".) When I moved from Buffalo NY to Miami, Horriduh in 1982, I composed for PBS, for TV and films of all kinds and performed with lots of Latin bands, learning their killer moves.
I restored, updated, re-recorded and augmented my best Latino tunes, and just finished both volumes (19 pieces each.)
Check out the guitar moves on song #1: "Rapidiha Brasilera"
All stringed stuff by me, drums by Dean Rickard

Son of Mr. Moon
Timbercats Remastered
Christmas 2024 Album
A brand new re-recording of a song I wrote in 1983 on the way to a gig in deepest darkest Kendall, a suburb of Miami, Most Horriduh, Hell.
The moon was absolutely full, I had a 45 minute drive and we played from 10pm to 4:30 am!
5 nights a week! INSANITY.
But there he was, hanging in the sky and all the clichés about full moons came to me.
