Who ?

My personal faves...

The whole of 'Futurama' and 'Adventures in a Yorkshire Landcape' from
the live album which was recorded on the night I saw them for the
first time (Awesome!).
Bill impressed me then and, although I've not liked everything he's
done since BeBop D, I am still a huge admirer. I saw them again a
couple of years later....
I did get his latest album from the website "Return to Jazz Lights". I
like it, he still is one of the most underrated players IMHO.

There's a couple of good clips on YouTube.

Trivia point:
My local guitar repair guru was his guitar tech in the BeBop days
(possibly after, I'll ask him), ...looked after the 345's and such.

has anyone here ever been to a Nelsonica?

I have never been to one of these Nelsonicas . Like most guys Bill
slipped form my memory only popping back in again about two years ago
when i discovered his web site . This Nelsonica is out of my reach
even though its happening York ( about 60 miles away ) , financially
im buggered . Nonetheless i still greatly admire him , and he really
inputs regular well written data to his online diary . Great
reading . I love the guy and knowing just how much he was ripped off
by Emi , i hope it all goes well for him .
