Which brings us right back full circle to George Harrison, who was 'instrumental' in Ringo's best successes - "It Don't Come Easy" and especially 'Photograph", both of which are indelibly stamped with George Harrison's songwriting and playing.

Now we know who bought Ringo Starr's groundbreaking epic "Sentimental Journey"

Well, I've sent two orders and two followup messages so far and haven't heard a thing in over a week's time. Hopefully something shows up soon.

Thanks for the comments! Yeah, it's a stock '78 so it has the cap. My Ric is a '75 with the cap and it works fine in the studio with the Rolands open-back, but like I said, I'm not pushing it.

Some absolutely monster musicians there for sure, incredible technical virtuosos on their instruments, but not a whole lot of listenable ...

Glad to be here! I'm amazed at some of the people here and the work they do on Rics, and the overall knowledge and love for these great guitars and basses. Just amazing! I've learned a ton just reading through the posts.

"Hanging Out in Heaven" is a great place to start if you're somewhat new to Marty. For Church albums, you can pick up most anything, although "Priest=Aura" and "After Everything Now This" stand out. "Heyday" is very good for the two-guitar jangle rock of their earlier stuff.
