The Drive

Little Town

My Country Back

Once Upon A Girl

High Time (To Get Down and Undwind)

A Killer track by a bassist friend; Steve Coffaro who asked me to lay down some chicken pickin' Tele - Twang on it.

Country Hoedown

Another song pieced together by combining parts from two former original bands chord progressions and main melody that I had to turn into an Instrumental!

Sizzle to Your Soul

Down In Flames

Down in Flames

An amazing Fingerstyle Jazz guitarist that I met online in the early 2000’s, Steven Ravitz wrote and recorded this and sent it to me to add an electric part over his acoustic. I was very excited for the chance to do it and how it turned out as we merged eclectic styles.

Radio Free Jazz

A Clapton-esque blues backing with numerous nods to slowhand as well as some “outside” lick ideas I got from Mike Stern and Robben Ford.

Spoonful of Blues

This was a demo for my band at the time, RadioKing, written by fellow guitarist Mark Storface. I came across the demo in the VS880 (that we were using to record at the time) and immediately had to lay down an instrumental take on it. I went for a Blues Saraceno vibe on this one. He is by far one of my favorite players for feel, phrasing and vibrato!

FuzzCoaster

The chord progression and parts of the chorus melody come from an old friend and bandmate; Gary St Kellys song called Nightrider. I turned it into an instrumental and threw in licks from many of my 80s West Coast shredder influences; George Lynch, Paul Gilbert, Warren Demartini and some Michael Schenker licks too!

Sunset Strip Schizophrenia

Im a huge fan of country Guitarists like Marty Stuart, Vince Gill, Albert Lee, Jerry Reed, Will Ray and Danny Gatton. The initial riff or banjo roll pattern this song starts with was the first exercise I learned with “Hybrid picking” and I just turned it into a song and began applying all of the open string runs and licks I got from a “Notes on Call” cassette lesson series I ordered from Guitar Player magazine in the mid 90s. I still perform this one regularly as well! The title is of course a salute to the greatest Texas Lawman that ever lived…..Not Walker; Texas Ranger….but the one and only Buford T Justice from Smokey and the Bandit!

Breaker, Breaker to the Bandit

This was a vocal tune written by good friend and former RadioKing bandmate; David Thompson. I loved the chord progression and melody and adapted a Jeff Beck inspired Slide approach to it

Blind

The first instrumental I wrote. The song and title inspired by one of my favorite players, Eric Johnsons “Cliffs of Dover’. It was also one of my first experimentations with multi-tracked guitar harmonies and layers.  Its been a part of my solo sets for almost 20 years and I also got to perform this one opening for Steve Vai in 2013 after winning a Sam Ash / Instagram contest.
