Roland Peachey
or
Poland Reaching
That's definitely my Uncle Max on rhythm guitar (who BTW ran a very successful dry cleaning establishment before the war).

Geeze, you were playing out when I was 8....
I wouldn't even see Tommy Cass and his Sho-Bud in dad's studio for 2 more years...
So why is it you looked younger than me in Newbury... |

I think you may need an Optician..or a German Shepherd and a White Stick and while you're at it maybe an Audiologist..!!

BTW your view of my performance at Newbury is not the same as Tony Madison of the PSGA who took me to pieces in the British Steelies November Magazine.. I'm glad you're not one of the audience that "I lost because of the large part of my alloted time that I took to set up my amplifier"..Strange.. because I didn't use MY amplifier, I provided it for Scotty and Sarah and John Fabian etc. and didn't want to alter their settings so I just pluged into the nearest available one. That took all of a minute..!!
Although I don't place much faith in his review.. he claimed I played tunes that both you and I know were played by others..
For instance "Moonglow" a tune I would NEVER play at a convention..You really should read Tony Madison's article It takes Sarah to task, as it does the sound crew...and the Liberty Ballroom bar staff.. |
