Me: Hey Ron,
I never even knew about PBS until a few years ago (thanks Michael
Barone!!). Oh, I'm jealous of your catching him live. Good for you!
There is a double disc out featuring some live tracks and some demos
that's cool too.

Me: I'm a bit of a Walker fanatic. I have all the "proper" releases
from the Walker's and Scott. Including a few are hard to find per
Scott doesn't want them rereleased I guess (such as "Moviegoer"
and "Songs from the TV Series"). I'm a sucker for the noble lyrics
and delivery of "Make it Easy on Yourself".
3) Beach Boys (OK, I had Pet Sounds but doubt I would ever have gone
further

Ron: Say No More! You need them all.
Me: Hey, Ron, we've had this discussion before! :)
Well, I have from the mid 60's to early 70's. Which is progress from
a guy who hated them many years ago, right?? :)

Me: Yeah, Rhino rereleased tons of Buck's stuff. I have the box set
and another 6 solos discs or so. The live disc is worth the purchase
just for smokin' renditon of the intrumental on it ("Buckaroo").
But, have you heard Nirvana or Honeybus!? :)

Me: I can understand that. But, then I could understand people not
liking Tom Rapp's, Walkers or Buck's voice too. Enter at your own
risk. :)
