Earl, I worked with BFS like hand-in-glove for the eight years I was with NCR. Be sure and tell Larry Juricek and Tony Jones that Jim Watkins misses working with them.

Cheers!

I was up until 1:00 in the morning listening to all of the other videos Earl is playing on. Earl, I saw you playing three different guitars and you made them all sound great.

Heck, you can almost watch Earl growing up if you start watching all of those videos of him. You were sounding awesome back in 1994. That was a good looking Mullen too.

You have some good licks in your collection of licks and phrases.

Hey Earl, you sure nailed that my friend, sounds great. Was that recorded over a mixer or just from the audience? Sound is great.--Henry

Hey Earl,

Love it! Great playing...tasty fills. John Hughey would have approved!

Do you ever get up here around Fort Worth?

Could you post some more links to some of your videos?

Thanks,
