Second song , "Longest Gonest Man" dates back to around 1986 , the early days. It was on Jim's first demo , which got some local airplay , but , was never released , tho' it was a staple in his show til about 1994. It's going to be on the next album , finally.
OMG!!..I remember taking my dad's car when I wasn't illegal to drive and I drove to south Baltimore at a place called the 8 by 10 and he was blowing the stage up I remember he was playing an old hollow body Gibson guitar with a broken bridge he had to keep pushing the bass string back in place when playing his tunes...what a amazing night I was just 18 years old I'm now 53 so go figure....lol
+Noune S george had a '57,gretsch make a reproduction model with all the personal mods he made to his origional model,Ithink it' costs about £15000, ouch! There's a good vid on youtube called george harrison and friends,it shows george playing his gretsch with carl perkins among others.
He was playing a old hollow body Gibson guitar that night and I remember him say DAME I need to get the bridge fixed this is when he was new off the street you might say but he rocked the house and south Baltimore I was in all I'm a guitarist myself and at 18 no matter the consequences of taking my dads car while he was sleeping off his stupor didn't register I was in greatness that night.....53 and I still reminisce of that night
