After teaching guitar for several years it seemed natural  to put my expertise into writing for various music magazines, at around this time I wrote my first book ''The Guitar Cookbook'' which although was never published sold a few hundred copies, Kevin Black a very good friend of mine left a copy of the book on one of the stands at the New Orleans Music Fair, this resulted in a publishing contract with top music publishers ''Music Sales'',...around 30 Books/CD''s and Videos have now sold thousand''s worldwide.

After Pluto split up I decided that I needed a  break from touring and being away from home all the time and I was missing my family so, I decided to stop gigging and start giving Guitar lessons which I''d been thinking of doing for a while. I stuck an ad in the local paper and before long I was busy teaching morning, noon and night.As with a lot of other musicians, I fancied the idea of having my own recording studio so that I could record my music and songs when I felt like it rather than having to book a studio in advance. Like a lot of other small studios which were springing up at that time, mine started in an upstairs bedroom. I recorded a few of my own songs on a Revox stereo tape machine using overdubbing techniques to enable me to record the voice and instruments myself. I then upgraded by adding a 4 track Teac machine to improve the quality of the recordings. Word got out about the studio and I started getting enquiries from other musicians and songwriters wanting to book the studio for their demos and so, I then upgraded again, first with an 8 track machine, things really started  to take off and before long it became a fully fledged 16 track studio, equipped with loads of other recording gear + keyboards, effects units and so on.
