Wow, I had no idea about his background. I saw him last month and it was a stellar show.

He’s a total badass! Interesting to hear the background.

 

[OUTLAW1969]

WOW, I had absolutely no idea about how he grew up, or the tragedy that surrounded his youth.

I learned something about his hard times coming up, but not to that extent. I was first turned on to him by my tie-dye and patchouli friends.

Thanks for posting. I've never listened to him before. Gave his latest album a spin.

                                      Yeah I knew about some of this "The Fretboard Journal" did a piece on a guitar a relative owned[And built in prison] who was in prison that was brought back to life and he played it. Growing in in that kind of a environment, poor, no real future, or so it seemed, drugs with most of if not all those who were important to his life and well being. He met the right people and turned his way out of it...........he has come a long way up for sure. I have seen him play before COVID hit and he is truly amazing. He is where he should be now, at the top of his game with a lot more to give.
