John Fisher Interview Part 1

The late John Fisher, The Godfather of Victoria Blues, talks to Dave Harris in 2006. Part 1 has the early years of Victoria blues, Blues X Five, Victoria BC's original blues band and Harry The Gnat, John de Conqueroo, Honey Bee and mentions of others with what photos and music I could find to add in. Special thanks to Kenny Preston, Glenn Parfitt and Mark Comerford for music and photos. Music is from Blues X Five, John de Conqeroo and Honey Bee. Apologies for the layout, I'm struggling with my program (Pinnacle). RIP John Fisher, a true Victoria legend!
