Welcome to The "Pack Rat" Page : Some people collect a lot of junk...I'm one of those people... Also we don't throw ANYTHING away!
And we all know I'm not the only Pack rat out there...
THE BUSINESS CARDS ARE OLD PLEASE DON"T CALL!
This is the receipt for my Gibson L5
I would ride the bus to a few of McDuff's
gigs. The bus would layover in Columbus,
I found my L5 in while hanging out at the
music store. Since owning the guitar I've
had the pleasure of watching and hearing George Benson, Grant Green,Eric Gale, Pat Martino, Melvin Sparks, Mark Whitfield, Russell Malone and so many others play my guitar ...... Do you believe the es175 sold
for $ 250.00 and the L5 $ 900.00 ?
1974
This is my little tribute to the Coleman family. We recorded four tracks in New York Jan. '08 , she finished the CD in California.
The magazine page is from the Jan 15 th issue of Time Out
promoting our gig at the Jazz Standard Jan 20,2009. The gig was on inauguration day and was a great success. There is a documetary in the works about the Colemans. That night they "adopted" me, imagine how honered I am.
Some guys would write their number on back of someone else's
card. The late Joe Lattimore( keyboardman formerly with Gladys
Knight) wrote his on the back of Red Holloway's. Earl Swanson
( tenorman formerly married to Ruth Brown ) wrote his on the back
of Bill Easley's old card.Bobby Broom's number is on the back of
George Benson's card.
