Orignal songs featured on these 1998 & 1999 recordings were inspired out of love from my wife Valinda, parents, family and friends. I am indebted to my parents who presented an electric guitar to me at age 12 in Youngstown, OH. As a rock musician for many years, my musical taste later transformed while I began to explore melodic texture of the acoustic guitar. In my first acoustic solo effort, I desire that you enjoy the beautiful guitar music that was created from my spiritual connection to our beautiful Earth. Though only a sample of my solo instrumental output is provided on my page, all 13 songs on my "Spirit of the Wind" CD were recorded using high speed analog tape at Real to Reel recording studio in Sunbury, Ohio. The guitar that is featured in my photo on my page is an Italian-made classical. The background is San Vito, Italy.
