Have you heard my resonator version of Randy Newman's 'Guilty'? It's here:
http://www.thatllteachyou.com/mp3s/guilty.mp3 ... I was trying out my new mic.
Here's a story for you:
Several years ago, in Sydney, I got a call from an old friend and work cohort Ricky Fatar. Ricky is one of the world's great drummers and based himself in Sydney for years, where he produced records. I often wound up doing session work with him.
Ricky called me because he was touring with Bonnie, was in town and asked me if I'd like to go to the show and join everyone for after-show drinks. Of course, I said. He said 'Bring one of your CDs along, Bonnie will be very interested in another slider'. Me and my gal Clancy went, watched the show (which was brilliant), and wound up in the closed off bar section of the State Theatre. Bonnie was there with a cluster of people around her, so I hung back. She chatted away with them ... I looked around for Ricky but didn't see him. There was what I thought was an opening in the gaggle of fans surrounding Bonnie, so I moved in and started to introduce myself. She turned and glared at me and barked 'Can't you see I'm talking to someone here!'
Well ... what can I say ... I moved right away. Ricky then appeared and said 'Come with me, you've got to meet Bonnie'. Before I could tell him what had happened, I was facing her, Ricky was introducing me, she was sheepish and apologetic for the way she spoke to me ... she took my CD ... we left soon thereafter.
Life seems to be a series of imagined upcoming events which become real events that bear no resemblance to the imagined version, don't you find?
I still love ya, Bonnie!
