Of immediate interest is the track ‘Heartbeat’ which kicks things off. This version precedes the one that Don Johnson released in 1986 which became a break-out hit for him.

He has opened for Pat Benatar and Bon Jovi in Maui (grew up), but also opened for great artists in California including Foghat, Quiet Riot, Kansas and Dokken. “Fasten Your Seat Belts” featuring four well arranged an
