Influences: Many folks made a big musical impression on me: my mother, Opal Coleman Smith, and her sister, Shirley Hubbard Frey; Emmylou Harris; John Prine; Dolly Parton; Linda Ronstandt; Simon & Garfunckel; Hank Williams Sr.; Eddie Arnold; the Hootenanny era; Carole King; Steve Earle; John Denver; Carly Simon; the Beatles; Willie Nelson; Merle Haggard; Doc Watson; Tony Rice; Anne Murray; David Grier; Patsy Cline; Pete Seeger; Alameda Riddle; Alan O'Bryant; Kirk Pickering; and the huge collection of inspiring traditional tunes handed down throughout the centuries. There are many others who have had a hand in my development as a musician whose names may not be as well known as those listed, but are every bit as important to me. I appreciated your patience and helpfulness, and I assure you, no matter how oppositional I might have appeared, I WAS listening. Thank you for your advice and guidance.
