Influences: I find that I am influenced by a myriad of Sources, not just Music. Hence my Joy when I think about being the guy who gets to go on this amazing Journey. So here are a few of my Muses, most definitely NOT in any particular order of priority. Each Moment has it's own reward... :-)
People I meet, places I go, things I see, the Wonder of Life, the Mystery of Knowing, acts of Compassion, Humming Birds, the Spectre of Grandeur, Race Horses for their great Heart.
The Hope of Peace.
The Circle of Folk I am Blessed to know as Friends (you know who I'm talking about), who are Lovers of Life, a big % of which are Musicians and Artists of some form or other.
The Labyrinth of Understanding, all that I've been, all that I am and all that I ever Hope to be...
