Bryan Adams
After a long dry-spell, my dear old friend, "BRYAN ADAMS" has got him a new computer, and back up a runnin.
Don't think he has his email set up just yet but, watches the forum pretty close.
In talking to Bryan the other day, he indicated he still has a good supply of his CD's available, that need a happy home.
Now would be a great opportunity to latch on to an album by one of the "GREATEST STEEL PLAYERS" around.
Just drop a little contact info on this post and I'm sure ole Bryan will get back you, shortly there-after.
He's all snuggled up in that sub-zero weather they are having up in the hills, but as I understand, that ole steel is still "HOT",,,,,,,,,LITTERLY !!

Many years ago Mr. Adams did some work on my PP at the Burlington factory. It was the mid 80's in May and very, very hot. He worked and talked and I felt like somebody special because of him. At the time he had some master tapes he had recorded but seemed ambivalent about following through with the project. Glad to hear he did it. Don D.

Bryan's a prince for sure. The first time I heard him play, he shared the stage with Mike Sweeney and they blowed the walls down with their C6 and melted your heart with the E9. The only Emmons I ever owned was a pp built by Bryan. Wish I still had it. Love you Bryan. Be up to see you one day and I'll bring Archer with me. We'll have a ball.

Yep, Bryan is a great player and also a great mechanic. This afternoon at a Church concert I played my push pull that he built for me in '81. It is still a tremendous guitar. Bryan also taught me much about the mechanics of the push pull guitar.
Thanks Bryan, give me your email address when you get it going.

Come to think of it
come to think of it:
Tha "DOG" lover Bryan has some gospel stuff he is working on and, like the rest, I'm sure it's gonna be A SUPER ALBUM.
You folks that know Bryan well,,,,, get him to tell you, my favorite, all time, cadillac story, which involves a knockin cadillac engine and the alternator bracket,,,,,,"WHEN YOU CALL TO PLACE THE ORDER ON ONE OF THEM GREAT ALBUMS".
When you hear that story, you'll go ahead and buy-um all.
STAY WARM BROTHER !!

I totally agree with everything said. Bryan is a great player and also there is no one alive today that has built or worked on more P/Ps than Bryan. He is the master when it comes to P/Ps. When he finishes one it is perfect in every way. Bryan has a masters degree in P/Ps. In addition he is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. I consider it an honor to know him. His knowledge on P/Ps and why and how they work is endless. I am restoring one now and when I think I have finished it I am going to take it to Bryan to tweek.

Bryan Is the Man
I've communicated with Bryan several times over the last few years. He is a great guy and one heck of a picker. I've never met him but look forward to the day when I can sit down and hear him pick in person. A man has got to have a lots of "soul" to play as good as Bryan does.

Contact Info
I've had several contacts, (via) email, regarding this post, and yesterday,,,, I talked to Bryan up there in them thar hills.
During that conversation, tha boy solved a "BIG" problem for me and I'll throw this in here also.
Bryan is also a "GEORGE L" dealer, and if you having trouble finding special cables, etc, he can fix you right up.
You know,,,, like those 90 degree cables that are so hard to find,,,,,,,,,, "WELL...........GOOD-UNS". He a building me a purty red-un with stress relief. Bryan said in about 5 minutes, he'd have me fixed up with that cable I haven't been able to locate in 20 years. JUST LIKE I WANTED IT !!!!
Bryan Phone Number 423- 727- 6093
And as we were talking yesterday, Bryan told me it was snowing blue blazes up there, and he was snuggled in, and would stay that way. Meaning,,,, he should be around the phone for the next few days. If not, just leave a message, and he'll get right back with you.
Don't miss out on those great tracks and albums Bryan has avaiable when you talk to him.

Emmons Push Pull
Hi Brian,
I still have the Black Emmons d10 I got from you after we met in Tampa Fl at the state fair. You were playing with Ava Barber at the time in the late 70's if I remember right. I remember playing it with the band between one of the shows, after returning home the check was in the mail. I would never sell this one I have played other guitars but it's kinda of like your favorite recliner nothing else feels right.
Thanks for hooking me up with this one.
