Full Moon Freak Out part 2

March 23, 1988 at The Batcave Recording Studio Caren Kossin, Jon Rogers, Alan Freedman. and I did this recording of "Jimmy and Me". Caren wrote and sings this song that never made it to the charts. Her passion for music was incredible and she died many years ago of cancer. Caren will always be missed

Jimmy and Me

In 1992 Caren Kossin got herself a gig at CGGB's Canteen so she put a band together..Marc Shullman on guitar, her friend Kenny(?) on Bass and me on drums. We rehearsed at The Batcave and I got some recordings from the rehearsals. Marc is extremely talented and I was blown away playing with him.
