Randy - I agree with everything you said except for the practice bit. All the times on the road, I never saw you practice. You just came out of the womb pickin' the fire out of it. BTW are we still on for January 12th? Best, Boomer

About 5 years ago a friend let me borrow a tape by RANDY. Some of the songs were somewere over the rainbow, after the lovin,and several BOB WILLS tunes. This tape brought new meaning to the word goosebumps. Since my friend was quite a bit larger than me, I couldnt take it from him. My question for RANDY is, is any of your recordings still on the market? and if not is there any way you can make them available on the FORUM. One of your biggest fans. MIKE HOLLAND

Randy Beavers is one of the unsung heroes of the steel guitar. It is hard to believe that this"little kid" has grown up and has a family and a business. But I guess they all grow up as we did, and the world of music, especially steel guitar, is a better place because of Randy. Jody.

Boomer and I have a cassette tape available that we did a few years back, no CD's though.
However we could have some CD's made up and make them available here on the Forum if there is enough interest. Just let me know how to get them on here.

And Boomer, yes, we are on for Sat. the 12th.
We'll get to do our two favorite things, eatin' and pickin'.
