Influences and Teachers

J.S. Bach, Mingus, Ray Brown, Ron Carter, Jaco, Rocco, Stanley, Marcus, that's just some of the early inspirations... Far too many to list them all...

Victor. We all know how well he plays. I have had the pleasure of meeting and talking briefly with him; What a positive, humble, straight-ahead guy. He has inspired me as a man as much as he has through his playing. I suggest buying his book if you haven't already.

Hobbies and Interests

Arranging, Audio engineering; I'm also an electrician.
