Played with Freddie Fender for a while and he would always say "tell it like it is" to me when it was time for a solo.
Well I'll be... I toured with Freddy from somewhere around 80 to 83. I was with him when we lost Little Joe Lambert in the bus accident. I was playing with Skip Easterling when Freddy called Skippy to put together a band. Freddy had played for years at Papa Joes and always loved Louisiana musicians....

Of course there was that little stint at Angola. I remember he had to get a parden from Edwin Edwards before we could tour in Japan...

Sorry, didn't mean to ramble off track.... I'll PM 51....
