Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Piano, Harmonica.ABOUT
A relatively normal guy who has recently retired (early) and lives in Holyhead on Anglesey.Have been married for 30 years to a long-suffering Welsh lady who has tollerated my obsessive musicality, despite not necessarily in tune, with my musical lifestyle.In my professional former life I have mostly been in manufacturing, computers, purchasing and have had more jobs than Tiger Wood's has had clubs!! I recently stopped volunteering,after 2 years, with the CAB......after realising how little value CAB volunteers seemed to be valued by the permanent staff hierarchy....still, that's llife.

Influences
As I am a child of the 60's, I grew up with all the dinosaurs of my generation and thus am very influenced by blues music and the classic rock which developed later on.I actually specialise in the blues, both of the early Delta, ragtime and great country blues.....right through all of the formative years of the 1930'sand 1940's up to today's Joe Bonamassa and am very influened by Eric Clapton, all the Kings, Buddy Guy and most other truly great electric guitarists.

Parissian Walkways Tribute Track number: 2 Year: 2012 Genre: Classic Rock
Am unable to express what a loss Gary Moore has been to me and so many other guitarists. It is a poor tribute and could never 'get near' virtually any version by Gary - enough said.
