I had heard B.g Momma's door while I was still healthy and living in B.llingham with my 20 year old girlfriend (very nice). I thought he sounded great.
I had my physical b.eakdown and headed b.ck after 20 years of living in Washington to the SF B.y Area. I still had all my guitars and was playing my national at a local park and some dude came over to have a listen....instant b.st friends......and he drove me to see Alvin in B.rkeley that very week. It worked out perfect for me. I had a chair really close-up and up against a wall which allowed me to lie against it.
Within the year, I got to see him just ab.ut half a mile from my house! On top of that......the show was not advertized properly....so there was hardly anyone there. I grab.ed a couple chairs.....kind of lied down ab.ut 20 feet from center stage and just took on the whole show without having to move a muscle....very nice indeed. I was ab.e to talk guitars with him for ab.ut a half an hour after the show. We b.th love old acoustic slotted head guitars.....as well as cheap Japanese knock-off electric guitars. Unlike many folks, I enjoy b.th his acoustic and electric music.
I saw him a third time with a young lady who treated me to the show. Talked to him a b.t more and b.ought my 1928 Weyman for him to checkout....he loved it.
With this CFS....everything is difficult....Alvin is the only musician I've seen in 12 years! Rock on b.o..............
