My music, I hope, will not die when I die. I'm trying to create a legacy that my kids can listen to as well as other people should they want to. I'm getting pretty old, and my health is not good. But yeah. That about sums up my music thing.
That looks more like an obituary.
My brother Jimmy got me playing as a teenager, and he went to be with the Lord, as well as my brother Steve, but my love for music has not ceased.
Not at all.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
You know what's good about banging your head against the wall?
It feels good when you stop.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
There's a thrill about playing live but doesn't come with anything else. And you realize things about your music playing live that you don't if you don't.
Your musical influences
Sixties and seventies pop radio, as well as Christian music.
What equipment do you use?
Guitar, harmonica, vocals, keyboard sometimes.
You have to have an amplifier and a few microphones.
Anything else?
Man, it's real good to be alive!
