About Me

Old Dog with New Tricks. Artist, Designer and Computer Freak. Historian and lover of Baseball and Football [The Indians and Browns - of course]. Love both Classical and Rock'n Roll Music. Started love affair with Rock as a teen when Mad Daddy and Alan Freed were on the air in Cleveland, Ohio. Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Fats Domino, Eddie Cochrane, Duane Eddy, The Ventures and Elvis plus all of the DooWops hooked me. Beatled, Stoned, Whoed, Motowned along the way. Got a contact high at a Moody Blues Concert in 1969 and have been listening to the wave ever since. As a WWII kid I really started with the Big Bands and groups like the Ink Spots and Mills Brothers and the 'great square inches' of Classical Music - Beethoven, Mozart, Chopin, Bach and Wagner. Guess I just like music!
