When I was in London for a vacation I've heard lots of people swearing on streets at their finest. There were too many creative word combinations after what I've heard in my own country. While I was drinking a beer and smoking a cigarette in front of a pub a homeless old man approached to me and asked for 30 pennys kindly. I've looked in to my pockets and there were only 50 pennys, I handed him out the money and he gave me 20 pennys back and added: "You are drinking the best fucking beer in Britain sir!" Two or three days after this I went to a shop for some snacks and sandwiches, I gave my last 8 pounds that day for three sandwiches a chocolate, two potato chips and a bottle of water. After I got out of the shop I ran in to a man with three dogs sitting on a sidewalk and watching the people passing by asked him if the dogs were his. He introduced me with his dogs Sam, Thomas and Taylor and we had a little conversation. He said his son died of leukemia and he spent his all money for his treatment and then he got homeless. On the final sentences of our conversation he asked me that If I have some changes. I told him that I've spent all my money on this (while showing the bag of snacks). He smiled and said "Screw the changes eh?" I laughed and offered him sandwiches and chips instead of changes and he took a sandwich and a chip, thanked me then I left there.
After 2 or 3 weeks of steemit experience I've seen a post by 
On the last episode of Bands About Bands he commented that he wishes someone could write about him. To be honest I was shocked "How come nobody wrote about this gorgeous man?" Yes I called dibs about the review, obviously. I've told him that I'm going to write about you and he got happy as a kid can be :) He offered me lots of information he can and here we are.
Jeff was born in a town called Penzance, far in the South West corner of Cornwall in U.K. As a teenage he was a shy and un-confident lad who experienced same thoughts we have experienced about the future and the future's bringings. He started to play guitar himself and kept it to himself as well for some time. He really believed that hobbies were for weekends and spare time for some reason. The most admirable thing about his guitar experience is he learned guitar all by himself. He never took a lesson and he always loved to challenge himself why he is playing with his guitar.
As all of us did he worked in various jobs as a factory/farm/construction worker, a cab driver and helped people with disabilities for 4 years on Mencap etc.
He said enough at some point, it was all the same and wasn't bringing the satisfaction he needed. The hidden artist in his body started to talk with him and convinced him to book a one way ticket to Asia. Glad he did! That's how we had a chance to experience his story and his artistic works. He packed a bagpack and his guitar, flew there and his story began.
He experienced some difficulties at first but he always smiled, done what he was doing with love and passion and of course he brought joy to everyone that he has touched their lives with his generous spirit. He is a wealthy man not with the money yet but with talent, time, passion and joy. I've recently read his "Quit Your Day Job Contest" entry and got inspired every bit of it and told him. I highly suggest you to read that article as well. You can read it by clicking here
At the age of 37 he still giving a fight about his passion and his dreams(free motivation for teenies).
He found his muse in Cambodia, his creativity reached beyond what he thought. Every other day he spreads the joy around him and creating beautiful melodies with his guitar.
Currently he is teaching guitar in a music school in Cambodia and on Dtube, giving out concerts, sharing his adventures on Steemit and experiencing the life at maximum by enjoying and appreciating every minute of it.
If you have ever listened to Jeff's works it is easy to hear that he achieved a fashionable style.
Before we get in to a song review he reminds me of a cartoon character that I would like to share. I shared it with him and got permission before I post. If you have ever watched The Wild Thornberrys it's not hard to catch that resemblance.
Okay let's review songs from him which I love most.
I have looped the song while I was writing this blog post. Maybe listened over 20 times and never get bored of it. Its like a never ending song of a day cycle. He named it more than words and its obviously more than words. Its an instrumental song and has very lovely melodies in it as sentences. If a British man would like to express his feelings about sunshine and sunset after escaping bloody grey weather on UK he will share this song with you. Its very easy to hear that Jeff is getting influenced by eastern melodies while he plays western style. This song maybe the first checkpoint of what he can do by blending of Eastern and Western scales. Grab a beer or a milkshake and listen it. You will fall in love with what you are going to hear.
An instrumental story telling that visualize the feeling of a walk in woods. The strumming technique he used on this song is mesmerizing and the touch he put to a hidden riddle on song is calming. Song gives the exact euphoria of smoking a joint after a long break. This song is going to be released on Jeff's next instrumental album. On the other hand do you guys remember what I've written on first song review? Well you will remember after listening to this song.
Final words;
Jeff has lost his beloved mom on this March and he said to me that his final words to his mom was "I will do you proud mom!" . Speaking on behalf of DSound community your passion, hard work and your spirit has already inspired us. We are proud just by knowing you! I'm sure that you've already proud her.

BONUS: A Poem By Jeff
Pussycat, pussycat, what did you do!!
You sniffed out my shirt and did a facking poo!!
I bet you scratched it beforehand and did your little shat dance ..
All whilst I was sleeping, in my lovely deep state of trance.Did you not think little friend, to use your litterbox?
A better idea for next time I think, else you WILL be kicking rocks.
I did actually think about washing it as it is my favourite shirt..
But a close inspection of the shatty bits and saturation,
made me gag and deeply hurt.
