Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, Robben Ford, Larry Carlton, Jimmy Messina,
Lowell George & Little Feat, Ray Charles, John Scofield, Alvin Lee,
Ry Cooder, Rick Derringer/Johnny Winter, Steely Dan, The Beatles.
Soul/R&B, Blues/Jazz..... and the list goes on and on.
I'm a self taught musician who has been influenced by the many and
various styles of music I love to hear and play.....
I'd like to consider myself a musical chamelion of sorts...
not really into just one style, but moreso music from the heart....
the fact that music is profound communication often without words.....
