"Mona Lethal" "Mona Lethal" (pictured here in 1979 from left to right: Michael Oliver, Keith Wilson, Kenny Mades, Alex Burton and Grant Werner) was an original band from Long Island, NY. It was formed primarily from members of the cover band "Mutt" in my late teens. Band members Alex Burton, Kenny Mades and myself were the original members. Later joined by Grant Werner and Keith Wilson from the "Bridge Gang". We were young, crazy, and had big dreams of being rockstars. Well, we didn't become rockstars (only in our minds) but had a great time before the band dissolved in 1981. These songs were recorded between 1979 - 1980.

MLC STUDIO BAND  (Mid-Life Crisis) was a studio project band which included drummer Ray Rossi, Guitarist/Keyboard music writer and studio owner John Jackson and badass sax/key player Eddie Bunch. I was asked to audition and later joined in 1989 after a several year hiatus from playing. These guys were really good musicians who enjoyed making and engineering music. The only problem was that we never had a good lead singer. I believe all of the tracks with a male vocal was John Jackson doing a reference track (not for release). "Back of the Bus" that I wrote with John adding lyric's later, has some girl that tried out doing the vocal track YUCK!   These recording are from 1989 - 1990.
