Charlie Feldman was inspired to play the guitar thanks to this father. While a teenager, Charlie formed several bands and over the years played with such great named bands as The Bassmen (named after the amp) and The Candy Store Profits. In the late 1960s, he went up to the recording studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama where several of the songs he wrote were recorded. He soon began working with music publishers, which led to his role as Vice President of Writers Relations for BMI. Over the years Charlie has worked with many of the top songwriters, many of which he proudly built into friendships that continue to inspire his work, especially in honoring those who paved the way.
