There are three files associated with each Song : A KN7000 format file group, Sheet Music in BMP format and an MP3 file. The KN7000 file and the Sheet Music file are compressed in ZIP format and should be Unzipped after downloading. The MP3 file can be either downloaded and saved to a folder on your PC, or played directly, using Windows Media Player, by clicking on the file.

There is also an option to download all 10 of the KN7000 format files, as a single ZIP file. This file should be downloaded to a temporary folder or Desktop on your PC and then Unzipped to a Floppy Disk for transfer to the KN7000.
For those who do not have a Floppy Disk Drive on their PC, the downloaded file should be Unzipped to a temporary folder on your Hard Drive and then transferred to KN7000, one song at a time, using the SD Song Manager program, which was supplied with the KN7000.

I live in South Staffordshire England and married my wife, Angela, in the late 60’s. We have 2 daughters and 4 grandchildren. I started my work career in telecoms and electronics and after graduating moved into Production Management. I then progressed into Engineering Systems and spent the last 20 years of my career as an Engineering Systems and Management Consultant. I was fortunate enough to retire in my mid 50’s and this afforded me the opportunity of spending more time on my keyboard.

I’ve always had a keen interest in music. As a youngster my father taught me to play the cornet and we played together in the Rolls Royce Brass Band in Derby. Then as a teenager in the sixties I had a rock group playing gigs around Derby and Nottingham. It wasn’t until my early 50’s that I decided to teach myself the keyboard. This was not an easy task as I had never had any formal music training. I’ve always tried my hand at composing but learning the keyboard was like opening Pandora’s Box because now I could also try orchestrating and arranging.

I have to thank Bill for giving me this space on his Web site so I can bring to you some of my compositions. I hope you like these samples and along with the sheet music try your hand at producing your own versions of my songs.
