Our Guest Picker was Mr. Bob
Saxton... After an hour of listening to him play you kinda forget
that you can.... What a treat to have Bob come up to Ohio every
year to thrill us with his great talent.
Mentor/teacher Bob Mowery looks on as
student Charley Berwinkle shows the boss what he's learned since taking
lessons from Bob back in his teens. (OFGC brought these guys back
together again after many years... tell me I don't feel good about
that....)
Jim Lafferty "thinks about it" as
ol' Bob lays down some really sweet thumb picking licks.
I ain't going to show you his fingers
folks. This boy is starting to embarrass me with all the fancy
licks he's been learning lately... Chris Vickers from Dayton, Ohio
- co-club founder.
(Great color selection, Chret. Waz yer wife
asleep when you left the house?)
"Hey, Dave - lemme show you how to
play Sweet Bunch of Daisies."
"Naw, that's Sweet Bunch of Lazies."
"Let me show you how to play it....."
Dave Duncan played some very nice thumb pickin' tunes
on Bob Saxton's Super 400.
Willis Crocket and Dave Duncan jam it up.
Even little Jessica tried Bob's
guitar. "Hey, Bob - you know you can grab three strangs with
yer thumb."
Thanks to Ailene Duncan for taking most of these pictures for us.
