      Lee, have subscribed since the start. At age 77 & widowed, just came to the conclusion that if I had a "do over", I would want Leland Sklar for my next door neighbor. What a wonderful world that would be for a former bassist that "borrowed" from the Master for many years!!
      Please stay safe.
      Thank you & keep posting.

Your videos have kept me sane through these scary times, so thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your life, stories, playing, and home with us all. Stay happy, safe and sane. Best Wishes, Ian.

  • @gonefishing2006
    @gonefishing2006 4 года назад

    First. Love the channel. Next my post. After your recent RUclips video block out I was going to suggest doing the videos in two parts. Part 1 being the story if you are going to tell one. And Part 2 is the song you intend to play. That way if the song is blocked by the big bad evil video blocker, only the song is lost. The story is still told and heard. I agree with you and Rick Beato that if the videos are demonetized by you... as they are. The block is potentially hurting the blocker or the artist as their music isn't getting the exposure it needs or can use. I wouldn't be aware of several artists and their works if it wasn't for channels like this one.

    Reminds me of a story, I was in Nashville for a demo session. I was staying at the Producers home. The last night we were there the artist and friends were having drinks...you know the pat yourself on the back party..Well a few were smoking cigarettes the host dumped the ash try in a can under the sink. We all went out to see some live music came back a few hours later. The whole house was flooded about 2 inch deep in water. A cigarette caught fire under the sink and burned through the water line...oh the stories my RUclips friend...
