One for 'Bob' who asked about my Harmony geetars and linked me to a nice Ry Cooder page about the making of the film '
Well here's the master Lightning Hopkins playing a H162, it looks like the mahogany one to me and somewhat more than a 'junky guitar' as Ry referred to it.....I prefer the term 'poor man's Gibson'.;o)
Enjoy, this one's for you Bob
Also while we're about it, it occurred to me that I was asked by Doug about the Dylan Supper Club sets on which I made a mistake and got corrected on the day my daughter, Amy, got to see Bob Dylan for the first time at The Feis in Finsbury Park ["Cut the Finsbury's dear, cut the Finsbury's" Ian Dury ;o) ]
What goes around comes around.....especially Bob!
You know that expression that if you sit still long enough the entire world will drop by your door [well ok, I am paraphrasing but you get ma drift] if you stop still long enough Bob Dylan is bound to show up in your town sooner or later...[one of us must know? ED]
still touring around God's Golfball weeks after his 70th birthday |
