Andy Robinson: " I‘ve performed virtually every kind of music. My favorite is still the blues. Most of my early education in the blues was my association with David Workman and Willie Pooch. I feel that if the blues are presented by good bands and good venues, you would have to be "brain dead" not to get off your ass and jam. Keep Rockin'! ."
