I was rather late to Byrd appreciation (my first exposure being his pop/Blackbyrds stuff), but eventually became a HUGE fan of his BN stuff, particularly the live Half Note and Mosaic sets.

He did a lot of great work with the Jazz Messengers as well as side work with Wayne Shorter, Hank Mobley and Jackie McLean. Don't forget the classic "Blue Trane".

I'm amazed at all the guitar variations that Fender puts out. It seems that there's really no "standard" anything out there.

Is that the one with Beach Boys on it? Yep.

Yep.........that looks "burnt" alright! Interesting. So, that's a 6-string bass 'sort of' modeled after a Jazzmaster? and with a trem????

There's the tune "TM" on the 'Waves' album (does that count?)

Lon, is this the Strat you're talking about? That's a nice one, too.

David, the blurbs on the Epiphone (if you believe them) are all about the originals now selling in the $10K range, since there were very few made. You should'a bought one!

Lon, check out this "Select" Tele! (outta my price range, though)

Thanks, Lon! [sorry - doesn't help, though]

You made the right choice! It's a game-changer.

A unique talent, for sure.

Another cool, but relatively inexpensive ($399) guitar that I'm suddenly fixated on. HELP!

Will do, Agggdgggigggcgggkgggg!

The New Directions group with Lester Bowie was something really special. I wonder how many tracks might be still sitting in the can?

I last saw him with Holland, also. Will probably try to get to Yoshi's for that show, too.

SFJazz installed vintage jazz pix by Herman Leonard in the windows of the derelict building across the street from the Center. Looks great!
