"Godfather of Loudpop"

about me
For the last 30 plus years, I've performed, written, and produced music professionally. I was one of the founders of Beserkley Records. I am one of the lucky few, who enjoys what they do for a living. So in my mind, I've never worked a day in my life. The Internet has re-awakened the pioneer spirit in me that started Beserkley, and now I'm devoting my time to help develop this wonderful medium as it pertains to music. The most fun I'm having is as a source at MP34U.com. I hope you enjoy my discoveries. Please submit material to me for review for the Mp3jackpot.
