"What doesn't kill us only damages us".
Well, I guess I paraphrased a little bit.  Nice not to be the only 
survivor of "what a long, strange trip it's been".  Sober 12 yrs. May 7.
Do you read Vintage Guitar?  I got to the new ish today.  First three 
articles I checked were:
1) A thing about the first-ever cherry red ES-335--which was the one and 
only one made in '58.  It was recently discovered, having spent most of 
its life in its case.  The Hazardware guy in St. Louis (from whom I bought 
my swell "Ozzy Oswald" tee shirt) sold it to a British collector, along 
with its companion Gibson GA-83 Stereo/Vib amp.  I wonder what price they 
fetched..
2) Scanned a piece about Dick Wagner [I have _Frost Music_ on CD!] and 
Steve Hunter.  "Sweet Jane", off _Rock 'n Roll Animal_, is still on my top 
20 fave guitar "parts" ever.  Lou Reed doesn't like that 70's period, due 
in no small part to the fact that these two guitarists stole the show.  
Hunter still plays Gibsons, and I think it said he played a LP Jr. back 
then.  These guys may do a CD.  I'll go back and read more about the 
hardware either / both used in supporting Reed and/or Alice Cooper.
3) [I had to go get the mag out of the car--a mind is a terrible thing] 
was a thing about Michael Henderson, whose Blues music I've bought & dig.
He uses a Tele in E and his main guitar is a Silvertone in C, but he 
capoes [is there an e in there, or did I do a Quayle?] both to key a 
couple more keys each.  I have 2 of his versions of "Pony Blues", both 
great slide pieces.
4) Speaking of slide pieces, there's going to be a touring show.  It's 
starting at a museum in PA or so, then going on the road in ~ March.  It 
celebrates RESONATORS created by the Dopyera Bros.--Nationals & Dobros.
Bob Brozman, Corey Harris, and some other players are in it, along with a 
bunch of resophonic instruments.  Man, I hope this thing comes to Detroit!
