"My music career began in the 7th grade when I first took guitar lessons by Billy Bean in Kake, Alaska where I grew up, and organized my first band in the 8th grade called "Poor Boys". The members were Pete Johnson, Rick Austin and JR. Berkeley and me. I played band music all my grade school and high school career continuing through my entire life. I was so fortunate to record my first album, "[r=3524359]" with famous "[a283848]" members [a716620], guitar, and [a716619], drummer, including [a257304], world reknowned Native Sax player, and [a2917622], keyboards. [a291299], songwriter for "Redbone", also assisted me in mixing the diamond cuts of my mother lode album. Both of my "Love Birds," and "Alaska Jazz," cd's were recorded in Port Orchard, Washington, at [a1987443]'s studio. Jeff is ultimate genius Grammy Award musician, who plays many musical instruments, as well as a precision master recorder, who made my cd's completely perfect. I still play music and will continue to the hopeful 80 plus year old age of BB King." (Archie James Cavanaugh, Myspace)
