[Mr. Guberman]

Von Luck,

By the way...an unusual anecdote: Used to be "Guitar Player" magazine was it (and the only it) for us 6 stringers. Every year we would vote amongst ourselves on the "best" cat at his trade. Harrison never won anything, though his songs are among my most favorite and the very best. from, what, '73 to '80, maybe longer (I lost interest in the mag...and went to 12 string), McCartney would win best Bass player, hand downs, every year (even when he was making "silly love songs"), even in an era of bass players...All subjective, you know, but it occurred. He is a hell of a bass player, when you listen, and a master song writer when you don't.

cheers
Curt
