Bands...need liner notes for your next cd? let me know
Influences
I have been influenced by everyone from Hendrix to steve vai, black sabbath and zep were early influences. wasp, saxon, manowar, motley crue, ratt, cinderella, dokken, metal church, anthrax...anything with loud screaming guitars...megadeth...metallica...below are samples from the witch meadow days. my thanks to the musicians who helped create that band with me
I have two guitars now..my black fender strat( my first)...and my black Ibanez..refitted with tone zone pickup and custom "metal" artwork.
I use boss pedals athough I use a dod pedal for the delay( too many boss delay pedals die on me)..wah..dunlop. for amp, I have a 50 watt ampeg lee jackson guitar head. custom. I also use a 4x12 marshall amp.
Sounds Like
my solo sound is my own but close I would have to say: black label, steve vai, satriani,zeppelin....EARLY WITCH MEADOW SONGS CAN BE HEARD HERE!!!!!!however credit must be given to the players norm.dennis, and paul. without them none of that would have been possible. I miss the old days but you can never go back only forward. fans of WITCH MEADOW can get the cds (both albums) from www.cdbaby.com. both are available for digital download as well. WWW.CDBABY.COM
