I just picked up the cd and was totally blown away. Amazing! Great songs, great singing, great playing.

Do you know which neck profile it is? Profile 1 is 7.25 radius, while Profile 2 (which is sort of the "standard") is 12" radius. Mighty pretty guitar, either way!

I played a CV P-bass a couple months ago. It was really quite nice. Surprisingly so. I almost bought it.

Wait, you mean no one else on the steelguitarforum has been cranking "Mob Rules" on autorepeat for the past several days?

RJD really was the voice of metal. Consistently great, and I had ...

Oooh! Nice. Thank you!

There's quite a bit of nice steel on the album.

I'm sure the show will be great with or without, but I was just wondering if they'd be bringing someone out. Thanks!

John Doe and the Sadies are on tour right now supporting the new, fantastic cd that they did together.

But I had forgotten that the Ventures start on A MAJOR, not A minor. Ick.

I'd forgotten that too! Ick is right. I really liked the Chet version.

Shows you what I know. I never knew it wasn't a Ventures original.

Here's Johnny Smith's version:

They are tremendous. I could listen to that all day. And I'd like to, too!

Hey, they're on ANTI records, same as Merle Haggard. Maybe they'll do a tour together.

Jazz artists seem to have a deep-seated and spiritual fear of ever playing a melody.

You obviously do not know much about jazz to make a statement like this.

Or he's funny.

The Turtles "Happy Together" is pretty good for a Flo and Eddie fan!

he should get the heck out of the entertainment business.

Is he still in the entertainment business?

Say Arch, what does "squms" mean? Is it an islander thing?

Another great thing about the Lizard Lounge is that it's right across the street from the Forest Cafe which is (or was 6 years ago) one of the best Mexican joints in the Boston area.
