Of course, we all know Albert Collins is Texas' pride and joy, yet I associated California with Johnny Guitar!..... A happy New Year to you Taters, and please keep on regaling us with your guitar tales....!!! :-) I didn’t spot a Texas pattern as much as I spotted a hot guitar pattern!!

And a Happy New Year to you. Larry & Susan have been kind enough to allow me to one or two pieces a month. I've been sticking with artists I have worked with and have some personal connection with. So it's been mostly about blues, but I was thinking about opening it up to other genres - and of course, women. So you spotted the Texas pattern, Michel? Hmmm... ;) Hi Michel,

I'll email you monday or weds.. In your post you mentioned someone that knew a song but in the wrong key..That's a big no no in the business isn't it? Not that I know, But when growing up my mother the piano player ( who taught me to read ) Would have been very disappointed in me if i couldn't transpose a song to another key.. ( Mom..Can I go out and play Ball? Mom: Sure..Just play something in 4 flats.. Me: Gawd mom..Nobody plays piano..can I go out? How about something in 2 sharps? Mom? Mom?) (Story of my young life) :) Here's an old joke for you.. How do you make a guitarist turn down? Put sheet music in front of him.. Thanks Taters:

You are a man of many gifts. That song is beautiful - Larry "admonished" me for putting something on line w/o copyrighting it. You can email me at nagoyaDOTkidAThotmailDOTcom I'll be doing another recording again sometime soon. Larry is business partners with his buddy who started a music site that sells CD's (Check out muzlink on the column on the right under blogroll) and when I get off my duff and do it, I want it to be released there first. Anyway, I'd love to check out more of your tunes. That is a good song, so email me and I'll forward you my itinerary for the upcoming year. (Some dates are still coming in) Copyright your songs and maybe you might want to do one on YouTube... PS Mike F, a dear buddy over at Mike's Blog at Crooks and Liars used to play basketball at Wichita State. He is a musician who plays and sings his ass off. And he's played and recorded with a ton of folks and still does. He got me into this whole blogging thing... HoosierHoops,
