GOLDEN OLDIES

Before I morphed from songwriter to composer, I wrote hundreds of songs ranging from Ballads, Pop, Country, Novelty Songs, Love Songs, Songs for my Family and Friends, Boogie, and even Christmas Songs.

In those days, I was literally a “one-man garage band”.  I sang and played my Yamaha Baby Grand piano, Fender Rhodes keyboard, ARP String Ensemble, guitars, synthesizer, and a few other random instruments. I actually turned my garage into a home recording studio. 

This was long before digital recording, so I had to use microphones, equalizers, compressors, mixing boards, and anything else I could find to record a song.  My good old reel-to-reel tape decks, a TEAC 3300 for Mastering and a TEAC 3340 4-track deck, let me bounce tracks so I could get as many tracks as I needed… but at the expense of sound quality.  It’s a whole lot easier now!

ON THIS PAGE, I’d like to share some of those old home studio demos!
