   About Don Gabbert
I was born in Fort Worth, Texas in 1951. I graduated from High School in 1969. I spent a large portion of my young life in the Air Force. I was a Law Enforcement Specialist. Yeah that means cop. During the 60's I played bass and drums in several rock bands. Everyone did. I did a short stint as bass player for the legendary Robert Ealey, the bluesman. I played the Pink Flamingo, Charley's Jade Room and the old Bluebird Cafe and Mable's Eats. My old man hated country music but loved big band. He played his records around the house all the time. I had to sneak out of the house to listen to the Grand Old Opry on a friend's radio. I have played in country bands, rock bands, bosa nova bands, celtic bands and am now doing a folk/Blues music single act. I have recorded 5 CDs. Two in Eagle Audio studio and three are hand made at home. Fourare folk/celtic and one is old Blues. The legendary Jimmy Rose sits in on harmonica. I am the only vice president ever elected by the San Angelo Blues Society. I'm married to the most wonderful girl in the world and have two grown sons. I now live in Lubbock, Texas where my wife teaches at Texas Tech University. Masthead Banner Made with MyBannerMaker.com! Click here to make your own!

"Cocaine spiders run your memory on down,
I'm thinking of you babe on my way out of town,
Five shots to go on a six shot run,
I'll stay my story true back to where I begun..."

Hey, Don!

I like your portrait. I figured that since I stole your spot on Kelly's page, I should at least come over and say "hi" :o)

Please pass our love to Wrennah, and maybe keep a little for yourself :-D

Sea Fever

~ by John Masefield

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a gray mist on the sea's face, and a gray dawn breaking

I must go down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying

I must go down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over
