Drake Levine was my guitar player buddy. We shared the stage many of times
backing Curtis Lawson. Drake got me a show on channel 20 at Bobby Webbs
bandshell when I just started playing blues first blues man I've seen in S.F.
that dressed sharp on stage. The man was a blazing blues guitarist. He still
have that old Epiphone guitar from Paul Revere and the Raiders. He finnaly let
me borrow his blonde favorite amp about two weeks ago! Much love to the family
and many blessings to his wonderful wife who loved him dearly.

Cheers to Myron -

The break is killer! A little time capsule...
