Yes, Mark -- he played guitar and did backing vocals on that one with David in '75.

Yes Fuzzy, my memory was a little fuzzy (pardon the pun). That's the session where they cooked up "Fame," too, I believe. One of the benefits of John living in NY and somebody like David would call and say, "Hey, I'm recording, come on down!"

I saw Petty when a very young Lenny Kravitz debut record Let love rule was out. he was better than i thought and Petty blew my socks off. Honestly Herioin is not nearly as bad for your organs as cocain or speed. But dosages are very important and never controlled in a rock and roll world ... ahh live fast, amazing, and die sorta old but not really. I'd take that life if I could go again.

I have a Hegel H80 amplifier, their bottom-of-the-line amp. A Danish company, I believe. Like the turntable, it's very minimalist in design and I love it. The audio guy told me to just leave it turned on all the time, it's actually better to have it warmed up. That was a new one on me.

Lenny suffered from that malady of being too good and getting too popular too fast, and now it's fashionable to hate him. I have to admit I'm only familiar with his first couple records, after that I just kinda lost track.
