Influences
I have been influenced by many musicians over the years but my most influential are probably the following
• Ben Webster with his simplicity and strong breathy tones.
• Wesley McGoogan who shot to fame when his soulful solo in Hazel O'Connors' "Will you" hit the charts in the 80's.
• Boots Randolph and his "Yakety Sax," made famous as Benny HIlls theme tune.
• "Blue" Lou Marini with his hard hitting solos in the film "The Blues Brothers."
• Candy Dulfer stood out with her great funk style, not to mention her looks!
• David "Fathead" Newman another great player of both baritone and tenor.
• Ray Charles. One of the finest musicians that ever walked the earth.
• Pete Thomas. I only discovered Pete about three years ago when I found "The Cafe Saxophone." Since then he's become one of my biggest influences. Thanks Pete!
