Album Notes

Born in Washington, DC and heavily influenced by the Beatles, Bread, Three Dog Night and so many other '60s and '70s groups, Joe's music seems to combine a little of the groups of that time.

He had some success in the '70s as a songwriter/singer playing in lounges in the DC area. Some of his tunes were played on some of the smaller local radio stations, cable radio and even a station in Iran from a friend who was the voice of the Shah.

Joe then turned to Nashville, where Kris Kristofferson Publishing planned to use a couple of his songs for a light rock label Kris owned. As Joe's luck would have it, his tunes were bumped from an album, and the next thing he knew the label went under.

He also has worked with Chris Nicks (Stevie Nicks' brother) at Screen Gems, but again his luck went south.

Joe said that even though he had limited success, he was still pleased that someone other than his friends and family felt he had a talent for writing.

Now, after all this time, he created his own CD in hopes that maybe this time his luck has finally changed.

So, please sit back listen to a few of his songs and see what you think. He's already working on his next CD and would appreciate your feedback.
