The classic picture.....Dec [right] jams with Bruce Welch [Shadows] Joe Brown, George Harrison, Mike Reid, Lonnie Donegan, Chas Mc Devitt, the daddy of 'em all, Bert Weedon and Brian May [Queen] ....what a gig?

One of the last great gigs for George - Phil Collins introduced the impromtu guitar band on a very special charity gala night.

Dec Cluskey, started his career with his UK based band: 'The Bachelors'. One of the tiny few to have two records in the TOP FIVE at the same time. He has made £Millions from music writing, performing, recording and production - would you let him show you how?

Dec Cluskey has personally made £MILLIONS from music and sold MILLIONS of singles and albums world-wide...more known in the UK from his band ‘THE BACHELORS’ with their 18 chart singles, 2 Number Ones and recently released their 75th (yes seventy fifth) album. 2 Gold Records in 2008.

One of the elite bunch of hit recorders who have had two in the Top Five at the same time.

Dec now advises and produces many current ‘hot properties’. A ‘force behind the scenes’ in many bands and single artistes. After all, his was the FIRST international band out of Ireland to have a Number ONE!! Then followed U2, Boyzone, Westlife, Coors, Bewitched, Somantha Mumba...

Dec made his pile years ago and now gets his kicks from helping others to do the same. Sure, he makes good money from music - but that’s not the main reason he does it! He just loves helping people make a fortune! "It’s easy", says DEC, "it’s only hard work!"

King Rat!

As a mark of his standing in British show-business Dec has been honoured by being chosen as a King Rat and Trustee of the World’s foremost and most prestigious and exclusive show-business charity, The Grand Order of Water Rats.
