Gorillaz's new album is out: Strange Timez (Song Machine, Season one). Here's a catchy number from it - Désolé (featuring Fatoumata Diawara): Désolé (feat. Fatoumata Diawara)

I like yours better than Priest’s.

This sort of got me thinking. Would this be a live show / end of the tour / band sort of thing. Or more like the demo tapes from Bill's Mark II project where Bill pitched the project to a producer? Kind of like the last time Bill used the BBD product name. Outtakes from the Sunburst Finish sessions?

On this date, in 1989. .

Things certainly do seem to be complicated Geetar Homer! When I was a little boy, 'uncle' Pat and his wife, (who I think was called Marie,) were good friends of my mum and dad. I remember visiting them with my parents at their terrace house, just off Flanshaw Lane. At that time, I remember my father telling stories of Pat's smuggling adventures across borders in the 'States. (Between Canada and America, I think.) I also recall Pat had been a boxer at one point in his life. He certainly seemed a colourful character to me in my childhood innocence. Now I think of it, there was a subtle Irish 'twang' to Pat's voice too. I kind of took all of these things for granted. These were just some of the people who made up my mum and dad's social circle, people like George Cunningham who played drums with my father's small combo, 'The Merry Macs,' and that band's trumpeter whose face I can picture in my mind but whose name I now, sadly, can't recall due to fading memory. These people drifted through my life as a 1950's young kid. If my mother were alive now, these are questions or observations that she might illuminate for me, but sadly, that's now too late and things seem to be banished to oblivion with only slight echoes of what was once a vibrant and special family life. My memories of that period constitute fleeting glimpses, sometimes vivid, sometimes foggy, but always fond and warm. Back then, I was too young to realise what a fortunate set of circumstances I had been born into. My mother and father, despite not being married, despite being relatively poor, lived together until my father's passing and brought me up in an atmosphere of music and curiosity. I didn't know how special that was then, and am only now beginning to fully appreciate it. 😉

Wait a moment....have I missed something here or are Bill's roots in Kentucky ????

I'm located in MD (not too far from Philly). Usually, when i order from Eastwood, the guitars ship from the Chicago area. I haven't received notification yet of it being shipped.
