He’s doing great in Nashville and has this show every week. I see him from time to time.

Short instrumental

Toward the end of the interview the interviewer and Sneaky talk about a short instrumental included on “Close up the Honkey Tonks” that Sneaky was unhappy with. I assume the song is “Beat the Heat” which I personally enjoy.

Every picker of a certain age that played in the LA music scene knew Pete and loved him personally and musically. I know I did. Nobody before or since sounded remotely like him. He was a unicorn indeed.
Nice to hear his voice once more.

Exactly, Mike...well said. A man alone on a mountain top...
Here's Pete at his best, IMHO.
