I started playing again after a 26 year break. For the first time I went and played at the Salsa Cafe jam yesterday and was introduced to Lance's blog. Very surprised to see this posted interview and even more surprised to see you remember me from the days at Redheads. Best wishes for 2014.

Was he before or after John Lowes, Jed Ward, Johny Handle, John Oliver, Bill Brooks, Mighty Joe Young, Ian Heslop, Derek Dixon, Phil Smith, Brian Sibbald, Bill Colledge? <Brian Bennettnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2890708154880054256.post-71755913895860016742013-12-21T20:42:00.241+00:002013-12-21T20:42:00.241+00:00Hi Brian,We appreciate the interesting and nostalg...Hi Brian,We appreciate the interesting and nostalgic information.
