Jammin!

What Is Multiple Sclerosis?

Doug was a very vibrant, brilliant man who had alot going for him, especially in his music business. He was smart and knew so much about many things. Never in our wildest of dreams would we ever guess that he would have been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1984. I have included a link to a site about MS in my sidebar if you would like to find out more about it. Doug also was involved with the MS chapter in Houston as well.

Doug And His Music While Growing Up

Doug was a very inquisitive boy growing up and was extremely multi-talented. He was very much into music, learning how to play the drums as a young child, maybe because most of our family was into music of some kind, but Doug wanted to do it all, and as he grew up, he did.....from learning the drums, playing the organ, learning guitar and then the synthesizer. We always had an organ in our home because our mother played as well as my sister and I.
During Doug's junior year, he played the synthesizers for the Dickinson High School band in "Star Wars". Doug was very much into art and drawing as well. Honestly, he was a genius because he seemed to know things that were beyond the normal things in life and I can also say that he was a perfectionist in what he did.

Artwork

I know that I do not write much in this blog, and there's really so much to tell. I want to post some pictures of some of Doug's artwork and just haven't gotten around to getting it posted. Please forgive me while I get some of this done. This blog is going slow, please be patient with me.

More Songs Were Written

So where do we go from here? Do I write a book about Doug and let his fans read about his growing up or do I just let everything sit silently? Doug has other copywritten songs that haven't been put out to the public yet, do we proceed in doing so? This talented young man had so many things to offer, should we show it all or let it lie in peace?

Spin It......Alive Even Nearly 30 Years Later.

Thinking back about my brother, he was SUCH a genious. He just knew how to do so many things. He composed "Spin It" never even knowing that nearly 30 years later, it would be all over the internet for everyone to enjoy.
