This afternoon I had a most pleasant phone interview with Chris Squire! Our conversation will form the core of the foreword for my book. Most of it is about his famous Rickenbacker bass, and most of the details we already knew. He has also connected me with Yesworld's official photographer, Robin Kauffman, who has agreed to let me use some Chris Squire photos from a selection she will provide.

With the signing of the contract this week, the conversation, and the photo connection finally established, I am STOKED!

This coming week, I hope to get the technical information I need from the publisher to start transforming the book into the publishing program they need.

Things are moving along!

Well, it's not like I had competition. There are books on Rickenbacker and Rickenbacker guitars and some books with Rick basses in them, but this will be the only one with JUST Rick basses.
