Burroughs and the stream of consciousness of James Joyce, with an emphasis on themes such as freedom, travel, birth, sex, death, suffering and redemption. Influences include Rimbaud, Poe, Van Gogh and Buster Keaton. Musical inspiration comes from the Delta and Chicago Blues, and the many American and British artists who followed in their wake, and kept this music, in myriad approaches, alive and vital.
