Right now, I’m banging on my old keyboard – no pianos in sight. I know, I know, don’t be such a wise guy.
However, I walk four miles every day and I listen to what I’ve recorded thus far. I won’t link to any of it here and now, but, as soon as I have my 50 introductory posts, I’ll start slowly posting my stuff. It sounds kind self centered, but it’s actually the opposite. I’m always fearing that I’ve released albums filled with mistakes. One would think that I shouldn’t care anymore. I mean, after all, it is what it is.
I listen to what would be considered rock, pop, rock n’ roll and I listen to artists from Bob Dylan to Counting Crows to Alanis Morisett to Stone Temple Pilots to Hootie and his ex-Blowfish. I get inspiration from anyone and everyone to whom I listen. Oh, yeah, my guitar playing is strongly influenced by Carlos Santana. Too bad “influenced by” doesn’t translate into “sounds like”.
To friendship,
Michael
