I bought a cassette version of this on the street in Interlachen, Switzerland back in 1980. I played the crap out of it! It was years before i could find out who the players were. I think it was a commercial bootleg

Picked this up last week on Ebay. I am surprised I didn't get sniped. Vinyl and jacket mint. Looks to be never played.

My quintet has been going through some personnel changes. We have lost one guitar player and have gained another. Todd Parsnow is playing with us now. He currently is on Roy Hargrove's band. So when he is on tour we have to sub out his chair, or go chordless. Come check him out if you are in town. He is a wonderful musician, and he really brings a lot to the table. Our steady gig has moved to another location at last. We had been playing Mondays. As of this month we will be playing every Tuesday at a nice place across the street from the State Fairgrounds in Dallas. The Meridian Room has a top notch menu, yet everything is very affordable. They also have a vast beer selection, including many micro brews. http://www.themeridianroom.com/ recommendedations: Crawfish Chili Portabello Sandwich Cuban Sandwich We will be there starting March 5th, playing 9 - midnight. No cover. Greg Waits - trombone Jim Sangrey (aka Frank Brutali) - tenor sax Todd Parsnow - guitar Mark Wilson - bass Garry Granger - drums See you Tuesdays?! Drop in & say hello.

I just received an email from him. His name is Chip Hoehler. chipolah@earthlink.net. You will find pics at his website. http://chiphoehler.com He said to contact him for more help. He took the pics himself, and he has recordings of the band too. Quite the mother load. Good luck Greg

I used to work on the SS Norway years ago in the orchestra. The band leader was a member of that band and was on the LP. He lives south of Paris. I will contact him to see if he can help. If he has pics etc, I am sure he would be more than happy to contribute. Greg

It is nice reading about this band in here. I have a couple of the band's LPs. I had no idea that they had recorded so many!

I appreciate it Thanks Greg

There is a lot of hum when the amp is powered up with no guitar even plugged in.

I have been battling some god awful hum when playing through my Hot Rod Deluxe. I am running a Tele knockoff with humbuckers via a Boss ME-50, and when using the Boss the noise is noticeably worse. Suggestions? I have had it tweaked and cleaned up by the local area's most respected tech. He is a very honest guy. He replaced all the tubes when I had it serviced initially. Some 2 months after getting it home I really started to notice the noise. At first he thought it was bad tubes (he said the failure rate on new tubes is abysmally bad....something 20% of the ones he orders new he has to return. Then he determined the noise was due to leaky filter caps in the power supply. After he addressed that issue he found that it wasn't much better. So he charged me for just parts; no labor. So that was cool I suppose. I am awaiting a new shipment of tubes, Whey they arrive he promises me he will go through these and replace with better performing ones from the new batch. Under warranty. Cool enough., but my question is, am I now doomed to live with noise now that I don't play through a solid state amp anymore? Suggestions? I have heard of in line noise suppressors. Are they worth the bread? ($75 and up)

My quintet has returned to an earlier club where we were playing awhile back. The Meridian Room became much too cramped. The "stage" was more like a closet. It was just too uncomfortable to play there. I dropped in at The Free Man Cajun Cafe (2626 Commerce St Dallas TX) sometime ago and talked to the owner. We now have an open ended engagement on Monday evenings from 7 - 10. We are marking our 6th or 7th week there now. The crowds aren't exactly huge, but those who are showing up are pretty enthusiastic. The thing I find encouraging is that the club owner is hands off as far as what we play, etc. We can try anything. And he likes us. Come by sometime. Sit a spell. No cover. Great cajun menu. Friendly staff. Parking is reasonably easy and the area is safer than people might otherwise think. Deep Ellum is pretty much pedestrian and family friendly once again http://freemandallas.com/

Bower and Wilkins speakers. Anyone here own any? A friend has a pair he wants to sell. I own a pair of old school JBL century speakers (not the L100s though). These seem to be very well made. I am thinking of doing a side by side comparison of them to see which ones perform the best. The model I have here are DW 602.

I picked up what I hope won't turn out to be an expensive deal in the end. I bought a USA made Fender Hot Rod Deluxe...made in '91 the best I can tell. It definitely is noisy. The pots crackle and snap when I turn them. And I think I am in for new tubes soon, if not, certainly a complete tune up. I know it will sound better after it is gone over. But even then, it plays okay now. But I need to replace the reverb tank, and that doesn't seem to be a real expensive project. The one observation I have already is how boomy and bottom-endy this amp is, even with the bass and mid range dialed way down and the tone knobs on my guitar adjusted accordingly. I guess this is a tendency with this model, but with an EQ pedal maybe I can take care of that. Anyone in here have any experienced with a HRD? btw I paid $350 out the door at a pawn shop. I have some room to spend on a tune up etc and not be in too deep I hope.
