Influences

I've always been drawn to Hispanic music and so I guess there's an element of that and Latin music from Cuba, Brazil, Argentina and Peru. (Love Xavier Cugat, Ernesto Lecuona, Chabuca Grande, Baden Powell, Scarlatti sonatas.) Some blues / soul influences, especially Stax-Volt. Jazz wise, Getz / Gilberto, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Carlos Jobim. Music theatre, Ella singing Irving Berlin for example.
