I like a lot of obscure stuff. I think the darker and more mysterious and the more unknown something is, the more you can make it your own. I like to dig deep into Northern Soul and Motown and blues. I saw
The Rolling Stones film the other night which was mind blowing and I remembered the first thing I really saw of music was
The Rolling Stones on a video tape. I was 6 years old, no one told me they had been around since the 60s, so for all I knew they were current. I remember seeing it and thinking it was the most important thing I'd ever seen. So, they're up there as one of my biggest influences because they married blues and rock and roll.
