Nice tribute to Paul, although the photo is of Charles, the bassist.

Thanks for pointing that out - - that's what becomes of being lazy and over reliant on googling. I dug out my reissue of GYWDOM and have rectified the sloppiness.

All the best

RIP Paul Gilbert. Here's thinking of the good times I spent with Ian, your brother, and yourself on the days out with your late father, Ken, in the Yorkshire Dales. It was an honor for me to have introduced the Jerks onto the stage at Manchester's Mayflower Club back in 1977 for one of your first gigs.
