PEACE

I am originally from Charlotte,NC and that’s where I begain my musical trip. I started out playing the lead guitar(a gift from my brother Harold S. Simpson) until my Brother Michael C. Simpson decided that I needed some help. He came to me one day and said " Hey man, you playing that doggone thang like a bass". The following X-mas he came over to our Family Home with a BASS. Maaaan, that was Santa Claus to me. Now that was when I was 13 or 14. A few years later this same brother(1of5)allowed me to relocate to Oakland,CA in 1979. By 1994 I was introduced to the keyboard through a brother from KC, Mo. Gene Simmons…Thanx Bro. But my ear for music I owe to my brother Victor Simpson. He would have me in the basement in Harvey, Il. and make me listen to certain elements of a song. So naturally, I give Thanks to GOD for my ability to create and produce music.
I’ve traveled quite a bit within the USA. Currently I reside in S.A.,TX…thanks to my Brother-In-Law James “Boom Boom” Bowens(He GAVE me the money to relocate).
Here, I’m in search of fresh talent
