Glad to do it, Gents! I get the print version. My wife gave me my mail and I figured I'd get around to reading it later, then I saw that there was a Donn Landee interview and dropped everything to read it right then.

I've read Greg's books . The Doobie Brothers were played a lot at my house in the 70s. Great read about Ted and Donn producing them

I remember when my friend George (May he rest in peace) learned the opening riff to China Grove back in 1976. I thought it was the coolest thing ever. We were 15 at the time. First time I jammed with someone else was with him. He had a Sakura Strat copy and a little silverface Fender cranked all the way up and I bashed on my little Ludwig kit. I remember him saying "listen to that distortion!" LOL
