Influences
Everything I've ever heard.
Prefer good jazz keyboard players - Bill Evans, Chick, Keith, Oscar, Tatum
but appreciate all good playing - Nashville session players, Rock/Prog players, pop writers - David Foster, David Grusin etc.
Too many to list. Can learn from everyone. As soon as one stops listening it becomes the kiss of death!
