Started playing guitar in 1961 for fun playing single note instrumental hits of The Shadows-The Ventures etc this lead to being asked to join local bands as lead guitarist.As my skills improved I was asked to join more established bands I then was asked to join a top Dunfermline band " The Red Hawks " who had the residency in " The Kinema Ballroom " Dunfermline this then lead me to almost ten years of playing in the Ballroom with various formations of resident bands. I left the Ballroom about 1973/74 and formed bands of my own.In 1974/75 I formed " Paris " with former singer with " The Verge " Billy Hendry and went on to win 'The Sunday Mail" best band in Scotland the other members of that band of whom I have great respect for are Dougie Tavendale(Drums)Ian Steele(Keyboards)and Ivor Gaffen (Deceasd.Bass) Over the years I have been drawn more and more into "Blues" and " Blues Rock" material. I am not in any music projects at the moment but would love to start playing again. My favourite guitarists-Jeff Beck-Robben Ford-Hank Marvin.
