I started Hawaiian Guitar lessons when I was 12 in 1952.
My teacher was Ken Davidson. I lost track of him for many
years but we did have the pleasure of reuniting in the
late 80's and got together a few times prior to his passing
several years ago. He was great at Steel or Standard guitar.

He wrote the subject song for E9th and I dicided to
do it on A6th tuning which is one of the tunings I have
on a Gibson Consolette that I recently acquired for as
long as necessary. Smile

Thanks Ken.

My favourite CANADIAN steel guitarist has done it again which is a sure indication his health is now about as smooth as his technic ! Sure hope the worst is behind you Roy. Beautiful sweet 'ono' tone ! Very Happy
