| | Seventy Years Of The Godfather On Tenor Sax |
 | | He has not only evolved his own trademark tenor sax sound, but is an original, innovative composer/performer, interlocking and breaking down barriers between both jazz and blues as forms, with an instinct for eclectic innovation within both genres. |
 | | Dick is however simply a soul survivor and despite a series of enforced amnesties of his sax into its case, he has utilised near death experiences philosophically. |
 | | The new blues band featured Dick on alto, tenor and soprano sax, Diana Wood on vocals and alto sax, Keith Tillman (ex-Bluesbreakers) bass, John O’Leary (Savoy Brown) harmonica, Eric Bell (ex-Thin Lizzy) guitar, Dave Moore, Roland organ, Victor Brox (ex-Blues Incorporated) vocals, trumpet and Keith Hartley (ex-Bluesbreakers) on drums; later replaced by Stretch. |
