Influences: My influnces are too numerous to list here, but came from many nights in clubs listening to Miles, Monk, Mingus, Max and Ornette right there right in front of me, on the bandstand.
On the tenor saxophone, like many of my generation, it was three giants, Sonny Rollins, Stan Getz, and Coltrane. Of course, I always go back to the source of it all, Charlie Parker.
Then there's , Hank Mobley, Charlie Rouse, Eric Dolphy, Warne Marsh, Jackie McClean, Dexter, Coleman Hawkins, Ben Webster, Lester Young, Johnny Hodges and Paul Gonsalves.
Thank you's to: Bill Evans, Gil Evans, Louis Armstrong, Paul Chambers, Ray Brown, Scott Lo Faro, Ed Blackwell, Elvin, Wes Montgomery, Chick Corea, Roy Haynes, Joe Henderson,
Freddie Hubbard, Lee Morgan, Booker Little, Kenny Dorham, Andrew Hill, Cecil Taylor, and evryone who plays with passion and conviction.
