Starlust: The price of fame<br />

IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOuT MuSIC?<br />

Since 1963 when I begged my Dad for my first guitar I was electrified<br />

by the force of <strong>Music</strong>. It vibrated my soul, my being and inspired my<br />

most inner thoughts. I took to the guitar like a duck to water and<br />

within two weeks played prolifically. Two years later I formed my<br />

first band, The Young Executives, and signed a recording contract<br />

with Mercury Records. I was only thirteen. Seven years later I coarranged<br />

the score to the Broadway smash, GodSpell with Academy<br />

Award winner Stephen Schwartz. I still had the same guitar I begged<br />

for. My parents were proud. I received a Grammy Award. <strong>Music</strong><br />

continued to be the air beneath my wings.<br />

It is a miracle to convert the sounds of life, nature and our<br />

inner voices, into sound molecules called <strong>Music</strong>. I have recorded<br />

and marketed sixteen personal CDs on iTunes and after all these<br />

years released my autobiography entitled “StarLust: The Price Of<br />

Fame”, with a foreword by Paul Shaffer. In 2001, I scored twelve<br />

CDs with original music pertaining to each sun-sign of the Zodiac<br />

entitled “<strong>Music</strong> Of The Stars”.<br />
