"Bob's new CD, 'New Tricks From an Old Dog' has it all. Driving 70's guitar work, swirling Hammonds, tasty rhythm &
blues...... If you can't identify with at least one of Bob's songs, you haven't lived and you need to get the silver spoon out of
your mouth...... Fans of '70s Classic Rock couldn't do better than to add 'New Dog' to their collection...... This is a
ready-made classic!...... These songs sound wonderfully dated! And at the same time, refreshingly new...... They don't write
this kinda stuff anymore, and it's too damn bad!...... Don't let his modesty fool you, this CD rocks!...... "Screw Yourself For
Me" is a perfect example of Bob's ability to balance The Cliche against The Profound...... Can't wait for his first confrontation
with David Letterman."

Bio
I have been a professional musician since 1964. Although drums is my main instrument, I also play and compose on guitar, bass and synth. I started on the drums in my late teen's playing in the local band "The Vipers". We stayed together 5 years and performed Rock & Roll and R&B at private parties and college frat parties throughout the late 60's. Opening for concert acts and studio experience influenced most of my musical skills. Earned a Gold LP for drums on Freddy Fender's Wasted Days & Wasted Nights" in 1975.
In June of 1976, after 12 years of radio broadcasting and recording experience, I moved back to my hometown to fulfill a lifelong dream of having my own recording studio "back in the woods" which I call CEDAR CREST STUDIO. I received two Gold Records in the 80's while working with the Swiss metal band KROKUS.
I still have the same drum set I bought new in 1964 and learned how to play on, a 4-piece set of Ludwig Super Classics
with oyster black pearl finish. It is actually the Ringo Starr set model, cymbals and all. I admit to never having owned cases
for them and still play them regularly in my current band "Spilt Milk".
