fyi: his claims are ridiculous. his timeliness are off as the kings-men and the footprints were going simultaneously. since he is a slip personality with a sociopathic pathological history perhaps his alter ego was in the other band.
Music
He was a touring member of the Kingsmen. (unsubstantiated). Yank pioneered the first quadraphonic album along with Robert Lifton and Ben Lanzarone at Regent Sound Studios in New York in 1970. perhaps someone should check with these people. yank was probably in the room watching. He then recorded the rock opera “The diary of Mr. Gray” (plagiarised from johnathan caine's aka (larry cohen)) stone circus circa 1968). (link to photo) in 1971, which put him on the cover of many trade magazines (like what?) , the Mike Douglas show, (show us) the Merve Griffin show (show us) and the Sally Jessie show, the album is now a cult classic 'flop'. Yank was also commissioned by the White House, (Richard M. Nixon) to write and compose “Welcome Home P.O.W.s” In 1975 (another record that was probably pressed to a tune of 12 copies at woolworths). Yank produced the Broadway show “Let my People Come” (link to image) at the Imperial Theater in 1979. Yank wrote (uhuh), composed (righto), arranged, produced (flops), mixed or performed with the following artists: perhaps in his own delusional mind. xxxxx means he probably met them but definitely did not do much else.
