My Tribute to Steve James

[@btlnckr]

Absolutely! Steve has been a huge influence on me. I had correspondence with Steve on "Farewell the Roses" where I sent him a recording of me attempting it and his only critique was to "Keep the alternating bass going Brian- that's where the drive is" 💖

He was a nice guy, all about spreading the word of blues and teaching people.
