All the great guitarists...Jimi, Jimmy, Joe, Don, Duane, Chet, Vince, Django, Eddie, Andre, Leo, Wes, Steve, Charlie... songwriters like Dylan, Lennon/McCartney, Sting, Don Henley/Glen Frey, Harlan Howard, Dave Loggins, Bruce Hornsby, Springsteen, and all the great writers I've met and worked with on Music Row in Nashville for the last 20 years,... Singers like Paul Rogers, Don Henley, Vince Gill, Jude Cole, all the great soul singers, and you know, anybody that can actually carry a tune and honestly emote...Love lady rockers like Patty Smythe, Pat Benatar, Janis, Country rockers like Miranda Lambert and LeAnn Rimes...also softer rockers like Joni and Shawn Colvin. and Joss Stone's blues... John Mayer, David Gray, Lifehouse, Nickelback, The Wreckers, bluegrass by Cadillac Sky, and Halfway to Hazard's amalgam of country and rock ..and assorted others.. Love all the great musicians who helped me achieve the dream of having hits in Nashville..and all the publishers and engineers and receptionists who helped me along the way.
My favorite writer of all time is probably Ralph Waldo Emerson (Chew slowly).
Love Science Fiction, Science Fact, (The difference is only a matter of time, which really doesn't exist anyway, we just made it up), big ideas, big people ( I mean breadth of Spirit, Heart, Intellect, and Talent...You know..people with the S.H.I.T), this whole quantum thing we call reality, and my children, who are the best songs I ever wrote. (Their mother insists on co-writer credits). Oh and of course, Y'all.
