Mr. Endless Discretion and the Dooger in Hogtown in the late Eighties. The Final Mission of Rhythm and final lineup was Scott, myself, Sgt. Dad himself (Warren Hunter), Ross Hales, and Mark Douglas (The Dooger) on keyboards.
We recorded Heavy Metal Beehive and The Crank at Bazile Studios (Barney Bentall) hanging with longtime Barney guitarist Colin Nairne, as he regaled us with tales of shooting fish in Florida.
Scott produced the sessions, and soon after left for NYC and his budding hip-hop recording career. There he met up with other expatriate Canadians like Bob Coulter, Michael Blake, and Leif Arntzen. Later Heesok Chang took a professorship at Vassars, and brother Brian also stayed for awhile in the shadow of the Twin Towers, until he found gainful employ in the so-called Velvet Prison-his words, not mine.
Our young boyish Boy in Brooklyn metamorphed into the man we now know as Scotty Hard. Doesn't look so hard in this photo, does he? Well, to those who know and love him, the only hard part is his resolve to make his way, carving the roast that is NYC thick like they do at Lugers.
Hard in his resolve to recover from this horrible setback. And we remain hard in our support and prayers and good thoughts.
