Inspiration
- To John Music is as important as breathing. A writer, producer, musician and mentor to many fellow musos. Across 5 decades and 2 centuries John is continuosly inspired by LIVE performers of all genres.
- Music makes sense in a world in turmoil.
Influence
- influenced by the blues music of America and the interpretations of the British beat bands. The melodies of Lennon, McCartney, Harrison and Starr and the sensual appeal of Jagger, Richards and the Stones. Rock and roll is paramount. An essential ingredient to everyone who lived this great era of music.
