Paid for and “produced” by 15 year old Jeff Hyman PKA Joey Ramone – as written about in “I Slept With Joey Ramone.” Noise reduced (much as possible) by mastering marvel Howie Weinberg.

Recently recorded demo is Matty Quick-drums, Dave Merrill- bass, ML -vocals, guitar.  As you may suspect, I’m dealing with a slight emotional crisis.
Will pick up the pace real soon.

My friend Harry Slash sent me a CD with the song we co-wrote/produced in 1999. It’s the entrance “theme” song for ECW wrestler “Super Crazy: The Insane Luchador”. I’m playing all the guitars. The song’s called El Guerrero Nomad. Arno Hecht on sax and clarinet. Sounds like a Mexicali Bar Mitzvah- on the beach! and on the range.
