Songwriter/Recording Artist

I can be quite obsessive about music, and in particular great songs and great songwriters. I am a great fan of Holland, Dozier and Holland, the writers and producers of many of the classic Motown hits. I also loved all of the hits produced and written by Gamble and Huff for the Philadelphia label. I admire anyone who can craft great songs, such as Lennon and McCartney, the Bee Gees, Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder, Bacharach and David, Carole King, Bob Dylan, and Bruce Springsteen. I dream of being able to emulate my heroes, by creating a classic song that will capture the imagination of generations.
