My roots are mostly classic rock, country & R&B. That's what I prefer.
I played at the Grand Ole Opry several times per week for many years. I played on CBS, TNN & CMT dozens of times. I played on a Dove Award "video of the year". I played with numerous artists: Chet Atkins, JImmy Dickens, Connie Smith, Bobby Bare, Charlie Pride, Greg Allman. I played for Ronald Reagan numerous times, bla bla bla.
Although I have done many recording sessions, I prefer to play live cover tunes exactly like the original recording, using a digital click track (metronome)...same tempo, etc.
I don't drink or use drugs and I won't play with anyone that is under the influence of any illegal substance. I'm only interested in being and sounding professional.
