On top of that Gary, he's one of the nicest, most modest guys you'll ever meet. Like Russ, he loves his old vintage (read EXPENSIVE) guitars; unlike Russ, he only has about 3 of them. He also played in our little 'old fogies' group. I have a couple of recordings of just him and I if I can find them. He does a solo on one of them, 'Angel Eyes' that is just downright beautiful. If I find it, I'll post it. Playing with guys like Bob always makes YOU play better. My advice, forget about being the 'star', play with the best musicians you can find. That's how you grow.
