...Oceans, that is. Jane and I had the pleasure of Lucky Oceans' company at our annual New Year's party at the house a few weeks ago. With musical accompaniment by Beats Walkin', Dan Kleiman on piano, and a host of others, Lucky and I had a blast jammin' on twin steels. In this shot, we're trying out each other's guitars for the first time.

| You could have tried each other's hair while you were at it. |

| Yes, Dan, I'd forgotten that Lucky told me it had previously been yours. While he had it here in the States this trip, he sent it down to Paul Sr. for a make-over and it arrived back just in time for his flight back Down Under. Naturally, the airline lost it on the way home, but they found it by the next day and brought it to its rightful owner. Sweet guitar! |

Hey Jim, why are you wearing your pajama top?

It also takes great skill and balance to sit on a bicycle seat and play.

Yeah, I'm still smarting from that ill-advised decision. 
Good eyes, Arch. |

That's really cool Jim, Lucky is living over in New Zealand or Australia, whichever, we have been getting into films from over there. 'Danny Deckchair' from Australia and Anthony Hopkins in ' The World's Fastest Indian' from New Zealand, both great and I can see why Lucky moved there. He seems like a real nice guy and a good friend of yours.
I am still a huge AATW fan, especially the Lucky years.
Below is a picture we took at the PSGA show in 2006, it was a real treat to have him play.

Jim and Lucky- What a combo. I'll bet that was a fun New Years Day. Two fine Musicians playing two Great Steel guitars.
He guys, check out Jimbeaux's Jazz Website, a fantastic bunch of Jazz Artists playing our favorite instrument....al.
