I would especially like to thank Blues Man Otis Taylor for his guidance and inspiration. Thank you brother. Also Jimmy Lloyd Rea for his constant badgering, haranguing and in general rude and loyal friendship and guidance. you da man. Randy McKellip, Henry Kinsley and my son Matt... you are splendid teachers.
