This 1976 energetic mass of insanity features my wild and crazy brother John screaming on vocals while pounding on a cardboard box and coffee cans with me playing electric guitar through a small boom box. (notice my guitar riff at 1:33 - three years before Van Halen came on the scene with same riff!) It was completely improvised and spontaneously recorded live onto a hand held mono cassette recorder. We improvised all the time!

 I only wish I had the improvised “radio skits” we used to record with our crazy and nutty brand of humor and  music. They were hysterical, mostly due to John’s weird and wacky genius. Our best skit was probably a make-believe radio skit called “Fart-O-Rama” - a farting contest where the contestant who blew the loudest, most interesting farts would take first prize. You had to hear it to understand  - I still occasionally find myself laughing at the oddest moments when remembering our wacky skits.

John’s musical, comedic, artistic, and religious contributions into my life can never be overstated or taken for granted. He went home to be with the Lord in November of 2015 after suffering heart problems.

I MISS YOU BROTHER…
can’t wait for that heavenly reunion! Say hi to Mom and Dad for us sibs…
