[AGL] Re: The Threadgill's gatherings/Eddie Wilson

[Michael Eisenstadt]

Connie,

The reason I brought the violin on Wednesdays
was that all the "musicians" drank free beer. And
that is where I heard Kenneth sing Jimmy Roger
songs. And that's how I learnt that KT-MFT, KT-MFT.
My mistake was to have owned the 4 LP's of all
the Jimmy Roger songs.

No, I don't remember Eddie Wilson  being there,
nor Jaxon for that matter. Just the usual suspects,
Powell, John Clay, Lanny Wiggins, that crowd.

Did Jaxon do drawings of Eddie at Kenneth's
bar? Please advise.

Mike
