To put it in musician's terms, my chops are good.
Someone skipped on the rent and they left behind a huge upright piano, which got moved into our apartment so the other apartment could get rented out. I took to it and started playing.
So I went into jazz and performed in jazz clubs all over the country.
When I was four years old, my mother owned some tenements in the Bronx.
My background was in performing originally.
I have a bunch of albums I would love to get re-released.
