Robert and I talk about his transition from playing sacred music in a predominantly black church to playing all over the world with his Family Band & some of the influences that got him there. We also discuss the systemic racism that is still an issue in our country.

* Robert mentions the first time he played with Phil. It was at Xmas Jam in 2001 and he sat in for "Lovelight".  You can hear it here: https://archive.org/details/2001-12-21.paf.schoeps.mikeyk.6599.sbeok.flacf
