| A simple 3 chord, uptempo pop song that I wrote with a simple bass line hook. I've always liked the humour in pick-up lines so I decided to write a funny song filled with those kinds of lines.Hit Top 40 Classic Rock March 2001.

| This is a song I wrote about Fate and Destiny. I symbolized the song into a realm of travelling through natures "Creations" like rivers and streams.My question here is, "Do we really control our fate and destiny or do natures "forces" guide us to our destiny?"Is the intro long enough for ya?Hit Top 40 Classic Rock March 2001.

| The whole idea of having no money, no job and the girl leaving is easy for us musicians to understand I think.I like that after she leaves him, the guy gets a big advance from the record label and she then wants to come back to him.I also like how I recorded the stereo drum fills. The rolls go left to right if you listen on headphones.Hit Top 40 Electric Blues March 2001. |

| An old instrumental that I wrote when I was 16. Moira means fate in Greek. I always imagine myself playing this in a small café overlooking the Mediterranean as people are meeting their soul mates there. Literally, the café of fate for all of us. I put the sound of the ocean in the background for a little atmosphere.Hit #1 on Classical Guitar charts Feb 01,2001.

| This was my entry to the Tonos contest in early 2001. It is a Steve Vai song, Jibboom, from The Ultra Zone without the guitar track. The contest was to put your own guitar solo on top of the bed track of the original recording.According to the contest rules, "entrants shall retain all ownership rights to this work", so here is my version. Hit Top 10 Electric Blues in 2003. |

| This classical piece "ROMANCE", from what I discovered, is a TRADITIONAL song which means that no one knows who actually wrote the song. It was written hundreds of years ago and no one took official credit for it I guess. It has also become known as ROMANZA and is kind of like "Greensleeves" in where a lot of people have recorded their version of the melody or written their own words over the melody and then taken credit for their words/lyrics. This is just a solo classical guitar version. |

| I've always loved flamenco guitar stuff ever since I saw McLaughlin, De Lucia, and Dimeola live in San Francisco a long time ago. I got the idea for this song while I was living in Hollywood and decided to go to San Diego one day. I wanted a song that I could just "wail" on and it evolved into this.Hit Top 40 General Latin March 2001.
