I spent the 1960’s playing in a traveling rock band. My book covers the five years the band grew from an idea my brother Ronnie and I had 1963 to a recording contract with Cameo-Parkway Records, a booking contract with the Bill Lowery Talent Agency, and an appearance on Dick Clark’s national TV show ‘Where The Action Is’. And then, in 1967, our musical journey ended when several of the band members were drafted. To avoid being drafted by the Army, I joined the Air Force and spent four years in Washington D.C. in the Intelligence Service. Got out, worked for the Alabama Department of Human Resources as a Social Worker while completing my Bachelors Degree, and then attended Law School at night for four years. I passed the Bar Exam, and became a member of a plaintiff’s law firm, Costello, Gideon, and Melton. Left there to become a Public Defender with the Legal Aid Society. In 1981, I was hired by the Law Department of the City of Birmingham as a Principal Attorney handling jury trials in state and federal court. On weekends, played bass guitar with ‘Fire By Night’, and later with Karren Pell, a Nashville singer/songwriter. I taught a course in Civil Procedure in Law School on Tuesday evenings.
