Ladies & gentlemen, The A side!

A 22 year young Brian E Downey here so precise on these really sophisticated fills and rolls, at the same time so loose and in the back pocket at all times after only three years of playing the drums at all – really creating a testament to the Motown style in this recording ! Lucky him his fabulous singer performer musician wife #PattiHall introduced him into the Detroit scene!

If you have noticed other Detroit or Chicago recordings with Brian E. Downey on the drums please let us know – this is however the only vinyl that survived in his household!

Excellent guitar care in Gatineau!

I would like 2 send out a “La Ola” of recognition 2 Stéphane Coulombe, who @ Adagio in Gatineau, repaired my Telecaster Slimline in the shortest of time and in a very knowledgeable way, when the day b4, staff of Steve’s Music Store Ottawa had assessed that same git and found “nothing wrong with it”.

Not only did Stéphane point out 2 me, that my strings were down 2 the core metal string and had the wound part gone where frets were touching and there4 buzzing on the frets, also he noticed after changing strings, that there was not enough/2 much pressure related 2 the spacers 4 G, B and high E strings – Stéphane took the washers out, ground down the 2 indented bases of those spacers and put everything back 2gether 2 the extend that the guitar plays better than ever and … Continue reading
