"Unlistenable - thats a euphemistic way of putting it. Actually - given a choice between trepanation and being subjected to your 'music', a drill to the head would be just fine. Though I must admit I am enjoying sitting with my friends who include people who play real music for a living ... and one thing we have in common is we are all laughing our asses off at how inane and downright crappy your 'music' really is. This is happening - right now! I wish you could see their faces."  -Whatchutalkinboutwillis

The Folk and Rock n Roll singer the media and fans call-'The Rock n Roll Poet' - is an Outlaw singer songwriter .A voice of the forgotten regular people who've  been  kicked around by life.
Weather songs of society, protest ,social struggle ,love ,hard luck , satire or rebellion
He’s a poet & a man with a message
He overcame death more than once –being told he’d never play music or walk again - even collapsing and dying right on stage only to rise up and survive. He has a perspective other songwriters don’t have,follows no one & goes where the winds takes him.
