all those types of people, but Andrei and I would be more into the pre-war acoustic blues. Robert
Johnson, Kokomo Arnold and Blind Willie McTell, Mississippi John Hurt and those sorts of people.
The likes of Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf and Otis Rush. Elmore James too..

BiTS: I don’t think I heard you mention Rory Gallagher amongst that lot. I’m a huge fan of Rory.

CC: Yes, Paul, our guitar player would be as well. I am too. My dad would have gone to see him

years ago, obviously. He would be very beloved round these parts because nobody else would come
and play over here and Rory always made sure that he did. So he’s always very highly thought of in
this part of the world. The guys in the band would all be big Bob Dylan fans, the Rolling Stones and
people like that. Peter Green from Fleetwood Mac as well would be another big hero of mine.

BiTS: Chris, I’m not going to take any more of your time. Thank you very much indeed for taking
the time to speak to me.

CC: Perfect, Ian. Thank you very much for all your support and for taking the time to interview
me.

BiTS: That’s absolutely wonderful. Good luck because you deserve it. I think that for a first album,
you’ve really done the goods. I’m not saying it’s flawless, but it’s certainly very good for a first
effort.

CC: Oh, brilliant. Thank you very much. That’s very kind of you and thank you.

BiTS: I’ll be in touch with you sometime in the future then. Thanks very much, Chris.

CC: Okay.

BiTS: Bye.

CC: Brilliant. Thanks again. Bye-bye.
