I graduated Quincy High in 1971, was a Quality Assurance Technician for 13 years, Logistics Coordinator for PWI for 4 years and currently am graphic arts designer for Freeman Specialty Waters.
I've played the local music scene since 1972 and am currently with the hard rock band Big Richard and cover band Mike & Company. I live in Ursa, IL (just north of Quincy) with my wife of 27 years Susan who runs the local café downtown (which consists of a grocery store, a bar and a gas station), and my son JC., who works as a sports journalist for KHQA channel 7 and Star Radio. These songs are samples from 4-track rough drafts recorded a few years ago and converted from analog audio to MP3.
