    Artist History
    He proved himself to be what was locally known as the "4-Track Master". All songs here (with the exception of 'Disillusion') were recorded on a Tascam Porta One 4-Track Recorder. For several years in NYC's Manhattan, these songs were showcased in and around Greenwich Village and the East Village in a band that was then called 'Where's Gideon?'
