Roual, I will contact Dick Goodman, but wanted to say, John Sanborn's Son, Harold , is here in Arkansas visiting ,Harold still lives at Bakersfield. He is now a fine Steel Player, He brought along a new 111 Legrand, a gang of local musicians had a jam session for Haro;d at our local Town Park, Yesterday, Fri.19th. You Bakersfield Steelers keep an eye on this boy,
Harold brought the Old Picture, and asked if I knew the boys with His dad , I could not remember them, I played many gigs with John, when he was playing lead guitar and I was on Lap Steel, and Fiddle, I sold John his first accoustic guitar and started teaching him the chords, and he went on to Steel, and was one of the finest Steel players in those years, Cancer took him out in his 30's
