About Me
I was the 2001 Live365 Blue Valentine contest winner, and was, of course, deeply honored. Apparently songs about having your heart tromped on after it has been pulled from your chest had a mass appeal. For many, Valentines' Day is yet another opportunity to turn over the scorched earth left in the grand exits of former lovers. Songs about betrayal, heartbreak, and unrequited affection provide a bleak soundtrack where one can first reflect, then, obsess and bum. Actually, some of the tunes were merely about that kooky thing called love and, hopefully, did not compel the heartsick to gnaw an arm off above the elbow before skulking home to hang themselves. Concerning affairs of the heart, it's like Dylan said: "the struggle's where it's at."

Favorite Artists
Slim Harpo
Rivals Muddy Waters as my favorite bluesman.
9 Below Zero
Don't Point Your Finger (1981) may have been the only thing they recorded, but it's classic.
Zephyr
Their live recordings from numerous Colorado dates are sentimental favorites. Forget his solo stuff: this is Tommy Bolin at his best.
John Doe
Mothers of Invention
(...provided, of course, you omit about everything featuring Flo and Eddie).
