I played with Eddie Taylor's son, Tim Taylor and Carey Bells son Lurie Bell.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Bob Taylor and I playing brothers. And I was a Mexican bandit. And he was the sheriff of the town. And we loved each other. We loved each other very much.
When I started playing, I played in R&B bands. I played James Brown, Wilson Pickett, Otis Redding and all that.
I was in the band as a boy and was taught music and learned to compose.
In 2002 Mom and I got a chance to act together in a play called 'Pitching to the Star,' with her brother, Robert Lipton. The three of us on the same stage - that was such a special experience for me.
My mother - the Irish side of the family - was very musical. My mother was a singer; there was music around the house all the time.
My parents were on the Grand Ole Opry. They traveled all over the country singing hillbilly music. That's what they called it back then. They were friends with Roy Acuff and the Delmore Brothers and the Carter Family. And all of my brothers and sisters who were older than me started on the show, after they were big enough to hold a guitar and sing.
I played Big Mama in 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof' when I was 20 years old at the University of Michigan.
All my brother Eliot and I did as kids was film sketches.
I was in a play with Julia Roberts and Paul Newman and Tony Randall.
Growing up my mother played Sarah Vaughan and Nat Cole in the house regularly.
