Bugsy Jones Band

Started with accordion lessons, so uncool, I abandoned that when asked to play bass for a close friend back in the early 70's or so, which led me to start playing guitar. Played in numerous Garage Bands thru the 70's in Queens. Put the Axes and the amps for sale, Tucked a Les Paul into Mama's basement and went into Musical hibernation in 1980, did the married, kids, minivan, soccer field thing for 20 years.... amp in the attic and a Les Paul hanging by a tuning peg of a hook in the basement covering the water meter in beautiful Wantagh, Moving on with the twists and turns of Life I rediscovered my fingers and a yard sale strat (the Paul was UN playable by then and the amp attic amp didn't work. Off to Sunrise Guitars where I traded an bassman carcass for a Princeton Reverb and it started all over again. After reconnecting with a college pal to jam and revive my chops I landed a stint with an Allman Brothers tribute band, Brother Peach.
