Hey Tony,
Hadn't seen you in awhile. I think last time I saw you, it was at the Long Holler Jamboree while you were playing with BJ Wright. Have ya still got that black Sho-Bud, It sounds great! I still like to listen to your Steel Guitar album you gave me. You've got a great arrangement of Crazy Arms. Me & Roger Henry were just talkin about you the other night. . .(when we were both playin a gig with Flash Gordon

)

Im playing with Albert Talley every Friday And Saturday night at the Mesquite Rodeo. He is playing as well as ever. I ask Hugo Chamber`s of the Old Hank Thompson band what it was like with Talley in the band, his answer was it was like having Curly Chalker but we never had to rehearse with him. HMMMM!!!
Albert work`s with me in the Norris Family Music room at the Texas Steel guitar convention in March. Last year they got a jam going with Jerry Brightman it was awsome.

Hi Chuck,
Tell Albert, I'm glad to see he's still picking. I'm usualy in the Dallas area around the time of the Texas Steel Convention, but never exactly when it is. I'll be down in Garland visting my family the last part of Sept. Send me your phone # by email and I'll give you a call when I get down there. I'd also like to see Albert again.
