If the Devil Could Sing

by Michael Jefferson

During a road trip, Mike Harrison's raspy voice assaulted the radio belting out, "I Am the Walrus." His frantic and pained delivery sounded as if he was engaged in a war for his soul. He lived his songs, and his distinct, plaintive style became an inspiration that helped me free rather than fear my creative dark side. I tell everyone, "If the devil could sing, he'd sound like Mike Harrison."
