I was born on December 13, 1950.  My influence in music came from my dad. It all began as a child, I believe I was around the age of four or five. I can remember my parents would come home from a night out dancing and dining. They would always have a small group of friends over to feast on Hors D'oeuvres, dance, and listen to the latest 33 Lp Vinyl records, which my dad would proudly provide. And the music would wake me up, and I would discreetly hide behind the living room sofa and watched them enjoying themselves. They would dance to The Andrew Sisters, Perry Como, Nat King Cole, Patti Page, Tony Bennett, and Frank Sinatra. My Dad loved music, so this was a frequent theme throughout my childhood life. However, it wasn't until February 1964: when The Beatles arrived in the USA for their first appearance on national television. I was in the hospital recovering from a hernia operation when my dad visited me to share the news about the Beatles. I was 13 years old and I never heard of this band. And after seeing them my life changed forever. And my interest in music was filled with 

the desire to be a part of the music scene. Unfortunately, I had no musical talent.  And then, one day during a Jr high school assembly there was a live band performing Wipe out. This was the first time I had ever heard or seen a live band. I can remember feeling the bass vibrating on my chest and I felt like crying. I couldn't control the effect it had on me. And I left the auditorium shaking and didn't know why. All I knew was that it felt awesome. A few days later a school friend of mine invited me to his band practice, and even though I didn't Like him I went along. And to my surprise, it was the band from the school auditorium, and that's the day I met "Abel Montoya" the leader of the band.  

I was so excited and nervous especially when Abel approached me and asked if I was a singer. He was looking for a singer for his band. And because I thought this was my only chance to be a part of the music scene I lied and said yes! The following day I auditioned singing a couple of Elvis songs, with my hair greased up and wearing my baggy pants. But in the end, I think I shook my right leg too much and failed miserably with the lyrics. Fortunately, Abel knew I was serious about getting involved with music and asked if I played guitar, and again I lied.  I seemed to be very good at that.  Particularly in this case because I desperately wanted to be a part of the music.   

So, when I went home my mother asked me if I won the audition. And I told her no, they decided to look for a guitar player instead. Things were not looking good.  So, to recap! My dad left our family the day after he visited the hospital, and I had just blown my singing audition and the chance of being a rock star performer. And then a miracle happened! My mother was dating a very generous man who brought a guitar with him, which was sitting on the end of the sofa. I quickly asked, "Oh!. Do you play that?". And he replied. "No!". And then I asked, but that is your guitar?.  Right?. And he replied, "No!. it's not mine, it's yours". And that's when I started playing. So, if it wasn't for my mom I would never be the musician I am today. Love you mom.

Here is another song I sang with Shere Thu Thuy

Song title "The Prayer"

Here I am singing with Shere Thu Thuy, singing a cover song.  Note: I am not a singer.  Consequently,  this song came together out of desperation.  We couldn't find a male vocal who wanted to do the male part, especially one who was available so I gave in . Oh Well!
