MUSIC LESSONS
This is a description of my previous work and the responsibilities I have undertaken during my 60 yr. experience teaching and performing . I have found that the most effective way of teaching is by giving you, the Student, respect and exactly what you are trying to accomplish whether it be Theory in music or the Training in learning Chords that can get you playing your favorite songs quicker. Together we will make this a truly learning experience.
ENGINEERING AND RECORDING
Through my many years of experience I have developed discipline in helping to create Final Musical Productions.

A LITTLE HISTORY
THIS WAS LATE 60'S
I was just a Senior in High School and was just turning 16. The band was " THE STONEY MOSS BAND" we performed at a lot of different venues and Clubs in the Tri- State area including Atlantic City. I had the special opportunity to play with the late great guitarist Jerry Topinka. The members included Fred Topinka, Marty Hillman, Paul Kothe' and Jerry Topinka.
THIS WAS THE MID 70'S
This was the Band called "Smiling Max" we were noted for playing such artists as ELO, Zepplin, BeeGees and many others. We mostly played a lot of Clubs in the area of North Jersey, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.
CHAILO
This was the most successful band still at this time. The band was already form when I was asked to join in 1978. The band was so successful that we were performing every night of the week. The band was set up as a corporation and the music we played was Full Of Soul. By the end of 78 we were on our way to Vegas.
When we came back months later we found out that we were one of 2 bands that had been nomonated and had won the WNBC Hometown Album. At this time the band was a 6pc. band. The members were Sal C., Mike C., Ronnie D., Al C., Jerry T., and Paul K. Today the band is Still together but with only 3 members Paul, Sal and Mike it's been over 40 yrs. and we are still pumping out the Tunes.
