Feb 5, 2010 - HI Ricky Excellent intro to your instructional videos - I started to learn with Adam (so been playing for a couple of years - and already getting a lot of gig offers thanks to him) - But coming back to Ricky Cool - I first saw you in the Barrel Organ in Digbeth, back in about 1975 - Ricky Cool and the Icebergs. I've been away from Brum for a good few years now - good to see you are still in there. Looking forward to learning from you. Kevin

Feb 6, 2010 - Thanks Kevin, Yes those Barrel Organ were great. With me posing around in my American guise. Mind you I think the Icebergs were the first UK band to play any Western Swing and one of the first playing Louis Jordan numbers, so we did make a bit of a mark in our own way. I hope you continue to enjoy the tutorials.
