I Just Didn't Know!
So I'm readin' a post on the SGF about the 'famous' folks you've played with and through a stream of consciousness, I end up googling Bobby Rambo with whom I played many gigs in Dallas in the '80s.
I didn't realize he had written songs on Jerry Jeff's recordings; all I knew was he was a HELL of a Tele picker!
I was looking at his Tele before a gig and noticed there was no model name. I had never heard of a 'no'caster before but I knew it sure looked well worn. He said it was insured for $10K and this was around '85! Imagine the price today...

Well, Bobby Rambo just left here a few minutes ago...he dropped off the grandkids...He is a really great guy! My wife and some of my friends rave about how great a guitarist he is BUT I have never heard him play. He takes my kids out to play golf and tonight he took them to see the Rangers play. I am an old school punk rocker and even though I have never heard him play, I am sure that it was with the same emotion and devotion that he shows our children...
BTW... I will ask him about that guitar
