Now and tomorrow. Here and gone. The fragile state of exist. And so far I suck at playing Robert Johnson, so doodling.

I was surprised the amount of footage of San Francisco in 1906 Uncle! The quality isn’t to good mostly, but some were preserved pretty well. What stands out was how busy Market Street was with cars, horse carriages, and people,  crisscrossing in and out right and left....all in an order of things. My parents took us to San Francisco in 1958, coolest place ever when your from a small town in Oregon. As always, very kind and insightful comments, thank you John!

Beautiful and restful sounds here, Rich.  Wonderful playing.  and fun.   Loved the period old cars, horse drawn wagons, watercraft and well turned out crowds.   San Fran would have been wonderful in those days.  This was a lot of work and art.  Well done and well appreciated.

Thank you Wes! This was break, a drive using a CBG as a brush on a very curvy road. Then back to practice. The kid still lives within!

Ah Danny, trade secret from a long time ago. Low profile guys like me use diversion and eye candy to steal your eyes from Claud-Hopper playing.  A story to be told, one screen the non assuming complacency and taking for granted hustle of existence, the other screen the instantaneous power of reality. Really appreciate Danny, thank you!

Thank you Silent Jim! Leo Kottke collabed With J.J. Cale many moons ago, one of my favorite records!  Did my homework on Ozymandias, shocked it had nothing to do with Black Sabbath ha! Deep thinking from the deep dark crevices of your fertile mind Jim, nice one! Doodle on shall I!

Thanks BeetleJuice! Appreciate the traditional sounds of CBGs, and the new frontiers for them. Still learning the traditional side of the coin, small steps in old shoes that have been around a long time.

Thank you Pick! Hours of trying to get some Robert Johnson techniques and patterns down, took a break for a little seismic story, glad you enjoyed it!
