I just heard of Howard Gregory's passing.
We were young sailers in the radio gang on an aircraft carrier.
He had his steel and amps and that @#$%!!! reverb box with him but we played electric guitars mostly.
What a genius he was and natural musician even in his teens.
We both bought Guyatone electric guitars in Japan.
He tought me much.
I have many memories of (we called him Greg) and have thought of him often.
Sorry I am for anyone who didn't know him. |

I had forgotten until now but I remember Howard's outstanding imitation of a Texas City radio station announcer. _________________ Time is so everything doesn't happem all at once. |

A memory of Howard that makes me smile is when he saw a suit with a red vest in a shop window in San Diego.
He bought it and wore it when he and I played at a Navy EM club.
His red vest was a big hit. _________________ Time is so everything doesn't happem all at once. |
