I'm sure. Hell; he deserved it. But; the Joe Pass EPI doesn't even stack up to an EPI dot. If you want to hear Joe Pass at his best, in his later years, there are some excellent videos, with Roy Clark, on Youtube, Roy Clark and Joe Pass play Hank Williams. These two artists had a grea...

trouble is- a lot of Doc's best work is lost to time; or owned by Carson collections. Unlike Maynard, who recorded more prolifically, the lion's share of Doc's work was on television; much of it on the, 'lost,' tonight show tapes of the 60's. Doc devoted a lot more time to the show than to making...

i bought a black es355 from i-offer. looks just like keith richards model for 350.00.;w case-shipped. has gibson style slim neck- perfect. i hear epi is coming out with one. bet it will cost 1000.00

i'd have to swap out that funky pickguard.

band sucks.

@TheLadandLass I worked at Bonanza, GC is way above that. They used to pay the employee $ 2.30 an hour.

it gives those who can't afford the real deal the chance to have the playing experience at a price they can afford. I have a China made ES 355 copy; which rocks, for nearly half the price of an Epi Lucille. And it looks very similar. I even wonder if they were made in the same factory....

raft was always great. was the first choice to play sam spade, but turned it down, bogie got it. still, raft was consistant, in all of his performances. i think this scene was in the film, bugsie, with warren beatty.

awesome recording of the sinatra/harry james 1939 classic. very beautiful.

ray eberle was, imho, perhaps the most underated vocalist of his day. this may not have been his best recording, however, if you listen to, 'my reverie,' or some of his other Bluebird recordings, he was as good as Dick haymes, or Sinatra himself.

i loved your number. may i ask, is that a genuine L5 or a knockoff? very few real remaining. many thanx.

an artist's instrument is an extension of himself. if a 15 year old player uses it over a lifetime; 10-11 hundred dollars is very reasonable. i washed dishes for a doc severinsen model trumpet when i was 15; in 1973, for 450.00. i still use it today. it was a worthwhile investment; because the q...

yes, it was alright... nothing more. george harrison was a great guitarist.

very good. often similar to his early 70's, 'california,' sound.

we had a male black shepherd. great dog. he ate 4 cans of alpo a day!

you guys could have walked into walmart, got a rotisserie chkn for 4.99, some hard rolls for 2 bucks, a tomato and lettuce, and had enough for 2-3 days...

there is some very good footage of the 67 chicago blizzard on youtube.
