These songs were written after researching each person, many of whom are my musical heroes....
BB King, Dylan, Rod Stewart, JJ Cale, David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, Elvis, Billie Holiday and Chuck Berry.
I'm always intrigued by rags to riches stories and was inspired to write about Richard Burton after reading a massive book about him
and also Aristotle Onassis who both led incredible lives after a lowly start in life.
Each track tells the story of one of the characters.
