Chuck Berry, Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters influenced me. I had a hard time getting work as a white bluesman from Scarborough, Ontario. Liberty Silver gave me a break. Played with her when I was sixteen. Played with Ronnie Hawkins a couple years later.

Never caught up with James until my daughter was born in 1988. She - and Sweet Baby James - changed my life. She introduced me to beauty, James helped me to define how that applied to music.

For me, the man is a living angel.
