Hello Jack, I was born and raised in N.E.Philly in the Tacony,Mayfair area.Before I got drafted into the army in 1966 I played with Rick. We used to play around with Les Severs,Dick Rich,Vern Godown etc.George Edwards and Big John Becktal still live here in Nashville as I do. I have been here since 1968 and seems like I remember Rick coming here around 1969 but didn't stay in town long.Lost track of him and you are the first one to mention his name in all these years.
Last time I got up that way was 1995.

Sonny Sleeter,Vern Godown and Bernie Chencho are all living in Florida.

Rick was in the band I played with when I moved to town 22 years ago. Last I heard he was in New Mexico. Malcomb Kirby may know more of his whereabouts.
