People with passions inspire and influence me most . I love being around those who are doers. Those who live spontaneously and creatively. Athough I respect all forms of music I have a deep seeded love of the blues genre!! I am mostly moved by The post WWII era of Chicago , West coast, and Texas sounds!!!!!! Here are just a few.......Kid Ramos, T-Bone Walker , Junior Watson, James Harmon Band. Kirk fletcher , Little Walter, Sonny Boy, Hollywood Fats Band, Anson Funderburgh, BB-King , Junior Wells Band, James CottonBand, Lynwood Slim Band ! Magic Sam, Howlin Wolf and many 60,s era horn player,s Coltrane, Miles, Paul Desmond, Ben Webster and Jimmy Smith!!!!!!!!
