I was a huge Curly fan and was fortunate to hear him in small venues many times. Here are a few of my treasured pix that I took at those.

Thank you for posting Johnny Cox. I’ll always remember Curly “Curls”. In my opinion, Curly was and still is the consummate C6th expert. Curly was and still is one of my all time favorites.😊

| That's a nice Gretsch he's playing. And, is that one of those Sho-bud (?) Compactron amps behind him? |

Happy Birthday to Curly.
Was he a different personality? I have heard stories over the years. That may have been why he was so creative?
He was a killer C6 player.
