Your musical influences
Everything and anything! Been playing blues, country and rock for forever and a day. As far as songwriting goes, I think Dylan is probably head and shoulders above the rest...Lennon and McCartney are very close runner-ups. I listen to everything...everything but top 40 radio that is. The guitarists who influenced me most are Django Reinhardt, Charlie Christian, Peter Green, Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, and Freddie King to name just a few.
What equipment do you use?
Guitar, mic, keyboard, preamp, computer, pen, and paper.
Anything else?
A democracy is two wolves and a small lamb voting on what to have for dinner. Freedom under a constitutional republic is a well armed lamb contesting the vote. Benjamin Franklin

Thanks Rudy, for the kind words...much appreciated! Did you see that someone on the forum just compared your newest to the Velvet Underground? He thought you played a live drum kit! :-) I need to learn to program drums and bass like you do!
Radio Chart quality song. I love the lyrics & melody. Very clean recording. This is a song that will stay in memory, caught myself singing some lines of it several times!
Thanks much Kevin! The guitar licks were played by one of the Acid Cowboys. Great band. ;-)
Hey Kevin, thanks much! That's one of the best compliments a guitar player could get.... Atkins, Django, Charlie Christian...timeless music.
Jim, i don't know if i ever commented on this one before, but this is really showing great craftmanship! BTW: compliments from my wife too on this one, she liked it very much.
