Now here’s where I got lucky. My uncle played organ and turned me on to some pretty awesome players through vinyl. I was 11yrs old, and although it would take time for me to understand what was going on, it gave me an advantage and I started working at an early age. These albums opened me up to Miles, Herbie, Train, and the great Arnett Cobb (who I worked with and basically got an ass whoopin education about playing live.)

Now, my mother’s album collection was pretty sou

Now, my mother’s album collection was pretty soulful. Ranging from Aretha, and Wilson Picket to Al Green and Van Morrison, and Jimmy Smith. She also loved Charlie Pride. I was pretty lucky in that my family loved music and played it all of the time. So I would play to all of the albums.
