Hi Don ... it took a while before I got the time to write some comments on messages boards. I got to know you through Mississipi Spud when I provided him a sax in Horizontal Blues and you did the same. I am not the sax player but the guy who got the guy to play the part. I manage the bluexbox page. There is lots of our stuff there and more to come.
I love your music and style.
Cheers !
