"This will take you to a work in progress called "Pokii" which means little sister in Hawaiian. I recorded it to give the readers of my Fretboard Journal article (Winter edition) an idea of what this Weissenborn Spanish Neck Guitar sounds like (pictured in my profile)." - James Williamson (on his Facebook page)
i think it's a kick that in recent years, james has gotten into slack-key gtr. i interviewed him for the i-94 bar 10 yrs ago and since then have received countless inquiries from ppl who wanted his contact info (which i lost a few computer crashes/files purges ago). the last time i heard from him was right after 9/11, when he (a father himself now) sent me some info on how to talk to kids about the tragedy. i don't make pilgrimages to see bands anymore (nervebreakers excepted), but i'd at least _think about_ traveling to see the stooges with him playing "raw power."
