He was influenced by Mississippi John and actually produced the last two albums Hurt did. He then went on to work with Peter LaFarge and Buffy Ste.Marie and you can hear Pat's influence on her.

Lean and beautiful describe a lot of his best ballads. Glad you liked it Amos, he's been my favorite for years and I was sad when he moved out and on to other things.....didn't like where the scene was going in the mid 70's. He's researched and written extensively, some for the Smithsonian, on Uillean Pipes and pipes in general.
