I want to talk about and promote the music I like whether it is well known or not… When it comes to my influences in my own music and guitar playing, I’ve got far more than one might expect.

I don’t want to just talk about and promote the music that is popular, mainstream or well known….Back last year I was lucky enough to be able to review the latest live offering from one of my most favorite guitarists: Jeff Beck. The album, Performing This Week Live at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club really caused a stir as a pretty incredible listen, a great showcase of the talents
