Blues, jazz, country, anything...
Who/What
have been your main musical influences ?
Paul Butterfield.

Winning overall at 1986 Northland Country Music awards in 6 piece band "Shennanigans", but many times just as great getting carried away in moments of musical magic.

to play more, really... (and better)
Your
best recent listen?
Live: Wellington Jazz festival last year: JJ Milteau at Te Papa. French Harp player. An impressive performance.
Album: a recent rediscovery of Jethro Tull's "Too Old To Rock And Roll, Too Young To Die" album, especially the track "From a Dead Beat to an Old Greaser"
Your
thoughts about the Kapiti Live Music Club?
KLMC has, I believe, something for a lot of people: music to appreciate, music to play, club involvement, social interaction & events, and all the interesting 'hassles' that go with it all.
