Sorry, I didn't mean to hijack the thread. Getting back to Glass Harp, no three-piece band would be possible without a monster on bass, and Glass Harp had (and I think still HAS) Dan Pecchio holding down the bottom. He has a great singing voice, too. (I think his son Ted plays with Susan Tedeschi.)

Didn't want to let this go without mentioning my "brother at the other end!"

A great "Rides Again" memory - I remember seeing the coolest guy in one of the upper grades with his copy of the LP. Well that did it for me, I just had to have it. So I save my pennys and off to the dept. store I went on my bike. You could have seen my smile for a mile as I waited in line to cash out. I got outside and just had to make sure the record was OK, so I opened the shrink wrap. PERFECT!! So as I start my journey home, the record falls out of the jacket, and a huge chuck breaks off. Needless to say I was crushed. I believe almost 40 years later, that empty jacket is still in pristine condition somewhere in my mothers basement.
