A lot of recording and live gigs through the years.
FIVE Bands FIVE almost got signed, but at the very end each time it all fell apart. Got some good stories.
I never "made it" big.
But I came close hear and there. I just love to play bass. I love the sound, the feel of it, the harmonics, the vibrations. Played with Phil Upchurch and Patrice Rushen in the 80's. | dragon6 is not a member of any public groups | |
