CLIENTS: What I am probably the proudest of is the musicians I have worked with over the past 36 years. I was a professional drummer from 1972 until 1995, at which time I semi-retired and built my own recording studios and I have never been busier or having so much fun in my life.I still work with most of the top musicians in the music business today; the majority of them are the most famous musician who ever performed on-stage and I am proud to have been a part that era and I continue to work and talk with them and we are all still good friends. To see a list of the musicians I have worked with, click on CLIENTS on the Main Menu tab.
