Scotty came to the Convention since he lived in Nashville. I got a chance to chat with him there in 1993-1994. Awesome guitarist Martin Taylor, who was also at the convention in 1993, does an interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQgFP-AwSBk Richie |

Definitely in my top 5 all time greats... 😎 Shame only 4 posts here in 24 hours.. I get the impression we'd need to even explain who 'Elvis' was to a lot of old diehard mudcat acoustic folkies.... |
