My recent CD Don't Borax the Borax Man features original blues and blues based material and has guests including IBC winner Sean Carney and Iggy Pop and the Stooges sax man and longtime pal of mine Steve Mackay on sax.. The 11 tracks from this release are available for preview or download here in the player screen left!
I added a track from the new Road Kill Kings CD "Heaven or Hell". The track features me on guitar and you might notice a nod to Albert Collins and Roy Buchanan in there.
Cleanhead Vinson, Christine Kittrell, Lowell Fulsom, Francis Clay, Vassar Clements, Snakefinger and Freddie Hughes are among legacy artists I've played with.
Now active in SoCal, I have recently performed with Larry Big House Davis, Bill Stuve, Cadillac Zack, Andy Walo, Rick Reed, the Road Kill Kings, Danny Ott, Jill Sharp, Mark St John, Louie Carrasco, Eric Reno, the great Joe Houston and many more!
Hoping to tour Europe solo soon-contact me with any ideas, opportunities, etc. Soon to solo video footage for demo purposes.

Hi Dick,
Here is my wish for the very best to you and all of my LiveBluesWorld friends as we take the music of our heritage into 2009 and the 21st century.
It's an honor to be on this journey with you. ..and a pleasure to be your friend. Thank you for allowing me to be a member of the community.
