Richard Collins is an obscure jazz musician from New Orleans...He plays guitar, dobro, piano, trumpet, banjo and violin ...now in his 60's , he has been a solo performer for 5 decades. As a band leader he never rehearsed with his fellow musicians, he was always out of tune and played on dead strings--even in recording sessions...yet, despite his personal quirks and misgivings he is still active and performing daily on the west coast in Portland, Oregon. His music has never had any swing to it and his voice is often off-key and intolerable. His vast repertoire includes tunes from Duke Ellington and The Beatles to Hank Williams and Lightnin Hopkins. He likes all forms of music and is multi-layered from solo folk to small group swing & trad jazz to movie scores with full orchestration Collins has been in 2 movies, on television and radio, and has done several commercials...He has recorded over 509 songs... and has produced 23 cd's.
