Good work Davo on who he is...Nice pickin, Nice Emmons, good attack and some good old fashioned A/B pedal work...looks like he plays about 10 instruments according to the internet.

I was hanging with Cindy Cashdollar and Dave Alvin at the Family Wash a few years back and she introduced me to Fats.

I remember her telling me that the instrument does not exist that Fats cannot play.

Not sure how he got the name fats??

Fats bought my first steel from me way back in the mid 80s. It was a GES D-10.
