Music:

Blues, soul, funk, classic rock and groove.

Movies:

Caddy Shack, Net Worth, Miracle, Slapshot, Blazzing Saddles...

Television:

Hockey Night in Canada is always good.South Park is unique.

Books:

The Game by Ken Dryden and They Call me "Mr. Goalie" by Glenn Hall are both great. Net Worth by David Cruise and Alison Griffiths is also very enlightening.

His slide playing is legendary (as I hope mine will be someday.)Steve "the Colonel" Cropper of Booker T and the MG's and Blues Brothers fame.Duane Allman is also a big influence on me.I'd also have to add in the players, especially the goalies, of the Original Six era of the NHL. Here are a few:Terry Sawchuk, Gordie Howe, Maurice Richard, Ted Lindsay, Red Kelly, Turk Broda, Sid Abel, Glenn Hall, Johnny Bower, Frank Mahovlich, Harry Lumley, Tim Horton, Jim Thomson, Loren Worsley, Andy Bathgate, Jacques Plante, Bernie Geoffrion, Vic Stasiuk, Bobby Hull, Phil Esposito, Stan Mikita, Toe Blake, Elmer Latch, Butch Bouchard, Busher Jackson, Dit Clapper, Syl Apps, Jean Beliveau, Johnny Bucyk, Syd Howe.
