    One of my first professional touring contracts as lead guitar was for a band called "Buffalo Springfield Revisited" which featured 2 original members of the band Neil Young started in the 60's.I was very young, and enjoyed playing these large stages, with such a talented ensemble, and it was my first exposure to riding around in Limousines, and flying your gear around on planes.The leader of this outfit was Dewy Martin, and the "Original Buffalo Springfield" band was inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame in Cleveland the early 2000's. My dear friend, and lead singer of "Buffalo Springfield Revisited" Frank Wilks and I founded a band called "Big Medicine" shortly after, and made our first CD under Frank's leadership. ( Produced by Canadian music industry wiz Jono Grant) We all parted ways officially around 1998, yet still worked together on many other projects and have all remained friends.
