Buck - I still listen to the Gnappy recordings often...you guys were one of my favorites. I've got a new recording studio and have just remastered one of the recordings...sounds even better. Send me your address to ed@quidleyamps.com and I'll send you a copy. Flyjack sounds great also...I love the horn section! We're moving the amps out regionally...hope to be in Texas soon. Can't wait to see the new band. Let's definitely stay in touch.

Hey guys! Thanks for letting me spin with y'all last night. I had a great time you guys were great... You should cover "Hercules" I think Buck has a great voice for that song.. and then the keyboard guy (aka Buck's little brother) should sing Mama Roux by Dr. John.. and then... I kid I kid you guys just keep doin what you're doin and I'll see you next Monday.
