LEW IS ONE OF THE NICEST GUYS I HAVE EVER MET. HE SINGS THE BLUES WITH ALL HIS HEART AND SOUL, AND THE GUITAR IS WONDERFUL. IF I AM EVER FEELING A LITTLE "BLUE" I STICK IN THE "STATE LINE BLUES" AND A SMILE SOON COMES. IT'S AN AWESOME CD. MY ONLY REGRET IS THAT THERE IS NOT ANOTHER ONE. HE PLAYED A SOLO FOR ME OF "HE AIN'T HEAVY HE'S MY BROTHER" AT MY BROTHERS FUNERAL. IT MADE THE MOMENT MORE BEARABLE TO KNOW THAT MY BROTHER HAD SUCH WONDERFUL AND TALENTED FRIENDS, AND I AM GLAD TO CALL LEW MY FRIEND. HIS CD ALSO INSPIRED MY NEW TATTOO. I HAVE "STATE OF MIND-STATE OF MINE" TATTOOED ON MY LEG. STATE LINE BLUES REALLY IS A STATE OF MIND.
