Hey Leo, sorry to hear about Randy. I hadn't seen him since the last Police Association Benefit we played at the old Foothill Club in Signal Hill, Ca. Randy was there with Danny Michaels and his group. You and I were in the houseband if I remember right......JH in Va.

Yes we was! That was Real Traditional Country Music & the roots of our heart for the neighborhood Musicians and our support to the Academy Of Country Music & The California Country Music Association & Nashville's CMA til CMT took it over and Crook & Chase was pushed out of the way like Ralph for the mess we have now in today Country Music.And now their back and have to do what pays their bills,Crap Country. I sure do miss those days. I can't seem to get it together or get it going out here in Southern California with everybody fighting over this new crap of Country Music.These Club owners & radio Station are brain dead And Big Business Corp.Country Music from Nashville Controls all of it events from Casinos,Fairs and so on. My end is near in music & my life. Heaven is much better! Uncle Leo J Eiffert Jr PS: May all that we knew RIP!
