Today I’m remembering my musical partner and best friend Stephen R King. We recorded all the songs on this album using Cubase Studio 4. The drums in my basement, the rest in my spare bedroom.
“Happy Hour in Deadwood” available on all the streaming platforms. Here’s a link to YouTube.
RIP SRK

I met Steve King at the Pub restaurant in Keene New Hampshire around 1969. Back then the Pub restaurant was a college hotspot on the weekends. I was bartending, and Steve was playing in a band with the Samson brothers, from Rhode Island. The band was terrific but Steve really stood out. I had never seen anyone play the guitar the way he did. He was using a quarter for pick and he was also wearing metal finger picks on his middle and ring fingers. A few months later our paths crossed again and we formed the band “Fidgety Feet”. I feel lucky to have spent endless hours on the road, on stage, and in home-made studios with Steve. Steve was known for his guitar but he loved arranging as much as playing and he was a master of every genre. Once again it’s Lou Trombley on drums and Steve on everything else. Thank you Steve for all the beautiful music. RIP.
