Thread Name: Whereabouts of Smiley Bowker?
Subject: RE: Whereabouts of Smiley Bowker?
I'm Dave Bowker, Smileys Younger brother. Tom(Smiley ) Bowker lives in Malaga Spain he moved from Blackpool area to Cornwall (Penzance area) for many years. He uprooted and moved to Spain also many years ago(how time flies )I have his contact info . He does not do computers cellphones or even carrier pigeons so hes not easy even for me, to get a hold of .He stopped playing and dismantled his studio in Spain and sold all the guitars etc,he has acute tinnutis and can barely speak on phone for very long its that painful. I live in Denver Colorado and still play full time, tho' the pandemic is about to kill me, if things don't buck up' a bit.My email is mojobooker@hotmail.com I was in a band signed to Warner Bros late 80's and I have been known as David Booker professionally ever since.I have a website www.mrdavidbooker.com very Best to all. P.S . I have several homemade Cds that he did in his studio stored in my archive in the basement if anyone is interested in hearing them , its all original , but very C&W /Rock not acoustic bluegrass . He is a big fan of the Byrds' Clarence White and he tried to emulate that when he was recording this stuff .
