“As a kid born in Memphis and raised in North Mississippi in the ‘60’s and ‘70’s great music was plentiful.

Albums and 45’s of great music shaped my life from early on. Records that my grandmother, father and aunt owned put me on a path that I’m still on. It was country, rock soul and blues.

Country and Blues have always seemed to stay important throughout my life. Or what I consider as “real” country and blues music.

A lot of that music back then was labeled as “Folk Music”. And I think that’s as true a label as anything else.
