That whole Look Sharp album is timeless. Graham Maby is the man!

I used to play this in a gig - and I could never remember the bridge, but it's ridiculously simple! I always had to write myself a cheat sheet - it got to be a right mental hang up!!!

Did you want a tab for this, I think I've got the part written our somewhere in my pre-computer pile of notes?

If you can, post it. I'm sure others would like to see it. I know I would.

Can do

It will take a couple of days - a day to find it!!! and then an hour somewhere to put it in the computer. But I'll post it when I get it sorted.

Agreed. We've been working on covering the live version of
"Sunday Papers." Will probably do it in front of a crowd for the first time this month. Fun, fun song to play.

Well said! I put the "I'm The Man" album right up there, too. I saw Maby live with Joe in the mid-80s--he killed, and he was jumping around the whole time, too. Even Joe said, "He's so good, it's disgusting".
