Hi Al
Glad to be a part of the family!
I started my playing career in the early sixties in the UK with trios and quartets playing guitar for Saturday night dances and weddings and gradually worked my way into the big bands which I suppose by that time had started their decline.

Later I became involved in the club scene backing cabaret and then did a long stint with P&O working as a ship's musician on bass guitar and sometimes guitar. Great days and all that free travel!! My last pro gig was a residency at C'esars Palace (not the Ceasars Palace!!)in Luton, UK

In the early eighties I came to Australia to live and then things started to slow up a bit as I was getting a little older and also I didn't do vocals which was becoming a prerequisite for employment unless one was lucky enough or good enough to get into the session scene. So after a few years of weekend only work (mainly part of a duo playing my KN2000 and later kn5000) I decided to call it a day, although I still keep my hand in at home. I now work as an Occupational Health & Safety Officer at a major clothing manufacturer and importer in Sydney.
Regards,
Cleon
