Bio
I wrote my first tune when I was 11, my first song when I was 14. I started in journalism when I was 17. I had a top 10 hit record with Car 67 (I was Driver 67) when I was 29. So this blog was a long time coming, partly because the internet hadn't been invented back then; but largely because I stopped writing music in 1984, due to a creative block. After many faltering attempts down the years, I managed to break the block in 2010. In 2012, I released my first album of all new material in nearly 30 years. In 2017/18, I re-released all my old catalogue, including previously unreleased songs, and I also released a new album of all new material, Breathe. In 2025, I'm back, blogging again, and releasing, track by track, a project of cover versions of mainly classic 60s songs, under the generic heading, My Generation. And, yes, the Who's classic is part of the project.
