many things. dinamics, stage performance, bass chops, vocals and imigination. I was born in 1960, At age 17 I got into yoga & meditation, as inspired by Maurice White & the band. I wrote to the band about vegetarianism which both they and I were into, as well as music.(I sing in tenor, alto & falsetto like Philip Bailey). they sent me books & info on the music industry. I went to Chicago in 1978 and attended The Chicago Conservatory of Music. I always wanted to be part of the band and thought this was my calling. I would love nothing better than to meet the band in person. If you were to test me, I can assure you there is not one EWF song that I dont know the words to and I sing with grace inmy voice. Bottom line...EWF was the influence (Spiritually) that shaped my life and today I still live by the principals of their lyrics, as they relate to God, Man and Destiny.
