"I like to present a broader spectrum of the blues because I grew up hearing all of it, and I think it's important for people to be aware of the more complete history of the blues." That it too is an Art Form as it's children, Jazz R&B, Rock, and Hip Hop are.

hey Bill, good talking to you the other night, just let me know when you want to do the collab, would be awesome. You've started something now. the fires are flickering.
Sims jr... The birthday is December 11th so you're early. I hope that I remember it when it gets here. We old timers must understand these things. Thanks for thinking of me...
