Was very sad to hear of Bob's passing. Too many musicians are leaving us way too soon.
A couple D-10s,some vintage guitars & amps, & lotsa junk in the gig bag.

Definitely..I hadn't heard from Rip since before he had gone out West. Smiley Roberts who also played with Rick in Jim ED Brown's band called me from Nashville to let me know of his passing. Great Guy and Great Musician.
