Walk Don't Run - The Story of the Ventures

I just finished the book. I'm not sure what I'm feeling.
Elation....that I've come full circle back to my roots...I can
pay jazz, blues, classical...just about every genre of American
music and then some...but I'm just a guy, one of many, that
learned how to play the guitar listening to Ventures songs.
Hours upon hours of lifting up the phonograph needle trying to
get the melody, or the chords, or bass.
The book is simply....F A N T A S T I C! And its mainly due to
the subject matter...The Greatest Instrumental Band in the
World....ever.
So I want to thank all the members here for keeping the Ventures
flame going. You've done a wonderful job and a great service to
music..especîally in these current times where we find ourselves
amidst mediocrity.
Now...to start the book...again!

It really is a great book, just wish it was also in hard cover
because I'm wearing mine out!
