There are so many great musicians out there. My all time favorite guitarist is Joe Pass followed by Steve Giordano of Philadelphia, George Benson, Pat Martino, Johnny Smith, Alex DiGrassi, Michael Hedges, Ralph Towner to name a few. Singers I am influenced by are Elvis (odd yes but he is definitely in there), Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Al Jarreau, Bobby Caldwell
I am also deeply influenced by the philosophy of New Thought, Kabbalah, Tarot, Zen, Patanjali. All of these tend to filter the songs I write. You write what you are.
The night winds carry sounds softly as if by design.
There in the muted light of a crescent moon I begin to play.
At first the chords find nowhere to bounce off.
The silence does not echo their reply.
Then a single chirp above it all high and cheerful unexpected at once and then as it becomes familiar it blends with the music. Now I can feel each creature tuning in to listen almost as if this single night singer has made it okay for everyone around to be not only a part of the audience but also a part of the performance.

If the stars had eyes they would be yours,
If the moon were a jewel it would be on your finger set inside a golden circle
If the sun could sing it would sing for you.
And if the night could remember it would remember your smile.
Love is an amazing thing.
It asks for nothing and yet it gives everything.
You have to let go in order to experience it and give it from a place where you have no idea where it is coming from.
It is the ultimate gift of faith because unless you believe in love it cannot be experienced and once you let go of love it returns to you as if it were always there your life.
There is so much to love and the source of that love is limitless.

Through my music and my writings I want to encourage everyone to go for their dreams and to realize that all it takes is a solid intention to do so and the rest will flow inevitably like those waves endlessly lap our golden shores.

I've been a musician all of my life except before the age of ten I thought I was a baseball player, a pilot, a high flying trapeze artist, a sword fighter, an adventurer, an army man; in short all of those things kids dream of after going to the Saturday afternoon matinees.
None of those stuck but playing the guitar sure did. What a passion I've always had for the guitar and for singing.
I played professionally during the Seventies and early eighties between NYC and Philadelphia. All during this time I wrote songs but never performed them live. It wasn't until much later beginning in 1995 that my wife JJ (harmonica) and I spent the next seven years playing coffee houses as the band JJ Slim on the left coast between LA and San Diego. Every song I played was an original tune. Out this incredible time we produced a CD ONE SHINING STAR
Each moment creates for itself the exact purpose for which it was intended.

People who do not love themselves can adore others, because adoration is making someone else big and ourselves small. They can desire others, because desire comes out of a sense of inner incompleteness, which demands to be filled. But they cannot love others, because love is an affirmation of the living growing being in all of us. If you don't have it, you can't give it.
One of the least expensive but most valuable gifts we can give at Christmas time is the gift of time. In our busy world, the phrase, 'I don't have time to...' has become a universal excuse. Like a growing plant, any relationship between two people can thrive only if it receives constant care. A phone call to an unhappy friend or a short visit with an aunt who lives alone can be a great gift that costs very little.
