What can i say about my friend Kenny, I guess it could start off by saying his singing and way with words are right up there with some of the greats and when you hear him, you'll understand. Having known Kenny for a while I can also say he has a mammoth of a heart and puts it into everything he does from his solo stuff to being front man of the southern rock juggernaut Blackfoot, we wish Kenny all the best but stick around for the end of the interview and hear some gems from our man Kenny.
