Introduction: I sang and played guitar and bass for about 45 years, wrote songs, taught private guitar lessons for 4 music studios, 1 music class in a private elementary school, and adult education classes at 3 Broward County high schools. I owned and operated my music business for around 40 years, as a teacher/instructor, singer/musician, entertainer, and DJ/MC. I Performed as a solo artist and played with several bands during a 30 year period. I sing (tenor) and play acoustic and electric guitar, bass or ukulele. Most of my 500+ songs are classic hits from the sixties and seventies, including country, folk, rock, pop, and standards. I like to help others to enjoy a fun hobby and personal satisfaction to achieve success in self confidence by mastering an instrument. I have taught over a thousand students from 7 to 70 in roughly 40 years.
