From Paul Ingles in New Mexico:

Five years ago today, I was laying in bed in the early morning hours when the clock radio clicked on with the news that George Harrison had died.  I can remember feeling this huge vibration rattle down my spine and a mixture of sadness and appreciation swept through me at once. It’s no secret that the Beatles had a huge impact on my life.  If you’re getting this email it’s because it’s something that I know (or suspect) is true of you too. Today I will spend a little time recalling George’s life and music.    Here’s an 8 minute piece and links to other material about George if you care to spend any time reflecting yourself this week.

Paul is the producer of an excellent radio documentary that I participated in, titled Everything Was Right: The Beates’ Revolver

Rita and I drove to southern California for Thanksgiving gatherings with her family and mine. The weather was perfect, and the feasts and family fun were splendid.

Here are some photos from our trip.

How was your Thanksgiving?

Drea Stein writes from St. Louis:

Just wanted to let you know that Jake’s Leg celebrated their 30th anniversary last night (Friday, November 24). They sold out an 1,800 seat venue. That was the first time that a local band ever sold out this venue. Our local paper ran a really nice article on them that I thought you might enjoy.

They have always put out such a great vibe and last night was totally awesome. Yeah, I’m proud of our guys….

peace, drea

I played a gig with Jake’s Leg a few years ago. Great bunch of guys, and they do the music proud. Congratulations!!
