Slow Down, Not So Fast Ron Bowes, Mel Hayler, Rob Grant

Welcome to my little corner of the music world. It is my pleasure to share my music with those who choose to listen and / or download it. I'm an old hobbyist musician, who retired from the local scene in 1978. I sold all I owned and gave up playing. I had worked in record stores for 12 years, during the 70's and early 80's, so I was exposed to a large variety of music. I have a love for listening, equal to playing. While working in the record stores, I LOVED finding new groups and promoting them to a local following of music lovers. I can remember breaking new groups, like Lynyrd Skynrd and Boston, when nobody had heard of them. It was an AWESOME time in the record industry. I remember lines at the door, when a new Rolling Stones LP came out. Anyway, my point is......I LOVE to listen as much as I love to play. My view on "reviews" has always been positive and I never say what isn't felt from my heart.

I picked up again in 2006, after hearing some friends music, at a site called Aural Moon. He told me he had recorded it at home, on his computer. I said..."WHAT"!?!?!?!?! "HOW"?!?!?!?! I was then introduced to a world of computer recording and Indie websites. I went to a Guitar Center and came home BROKE!!! A computer interface, software, keyboard, guitar, microphone.....and here I am today......As for my playing, I am primarily a rock bass guitar player. I love to mess with guitar. I try to play keyboards, though I can only play what I hear and my fingers can do......AND!!! I have no idea what I'm doing. I use EZ Drummer for drum arranging, Audio M-Tron for some of my Strings and Choirs and my Yamaha keyboard for others. I LOVE to do collaborations and have been tagged a "collab ho".......Oh yeah!!! My vocals......???? Never was a singer, never will be....BUT!!! What the heck!!!!!

I hope you enjoy yourself here and the music is yours for free, if you so desire to take it.
