Special and Personal thanks to Peter (the groove master) Horvath for taking this long 15 plus year ride with me.

Music and all of it's art forms, as long as it is in key and grooves, boils down to a matter of taste. When you play my music there are many ways to obtain optimum sound quality. First of all, you need a really good sound system. Second, I personally like to set the tone controls at the following levels · bass at three o'clock and · treble at six o'clock, turning the volume dial way up, of course, it's only a suggestion.
