Hi Gary

Killer job/sound on Shake Dancer. How did you approach that Li'l Walter tune? Has bcome one of my favorite songs but I'm looking for ideas on how to lengthen it say like Juke. Add 3 or 4 choruses. Make it 4 minutes plus.

We met again in Sacramento(1st time in '98 in San Jose). You asked about a harmonica case at SPAH. I said I couldn't help you then. If its still needed I may be able to assist. You also took one to Rodrigo E. in Brazil. Please contact me either way but especially about Shake Dancer extension ideas.

Thanks,

Hal
