Influences
Howard Roberts
I studied guitar under Howard Roberts for a couple of years.
Howard's main career was a studio player.
Considered the most recorded guitarist in history, he is heard on
thousands of records, tv shows, and movie sound tracks.
In 1977, the most current count was he had recorded 25,000 sessions.
Ie, he's the guitar you hear at the beginning of the movie, Shaft.
He is also a member of the Gibson Hall of Fame.
He was a super cool guy, great teacher and also helped me grow internally [in a cosmic
sort of way].
The album, "Inside Out" was recorded in 1985 and is our most popular:

These videos are the original MW lineup playing at the Wow Hall in 1985.

Note: The Miracle Workers continued their career after I left the band in 1987.
They recorded additional albums and toured Europe 3 times.
This myspace has not yet presented this period in their career.
After the MWs disbanded, Gerry and I briefly performed as a duo in Portland.
In 1993, we played a few shows at the Satryicon and the Clinton Street Theatre.
Hey Danny!!!....this is some really great stuff! Bradley most likely told me something about his friend being great and all....but I probably didn't believe him...lol...Miracle Workers have all the elements of a top rate group. I don't get out much and lived under the ocean in Hawaii in the 80's...aloha, Dani
