Sam Li Biography in the pipeline

As most of us on this forum are aware,Chris had his RM refinished by
Sam Li in London and Chris mentions Sam "telling him off" for sticking stuff all over
his bass which then had to be stripped before refinishing.

In the April copy of "Guitar And Bass" magazine theres a letter from Fiona Beattie ( Sam Li's stepdaughter)
in which she says she is in correspondence with artists who had work done by Sam Li as part of her
research into his biography which she is writing.
Her letter mentions as a child watching Sam working on guitars when she visited on Saturdays
and how she loved looking at the stickers on the guitar cases with names like Yes,Pink Floyd,
Status Quo,Nazareth,Wishbone Ash and many more on them.

Should be a great story when it finally gets into print.

Very cool.
Too bad that GUITARS and BASSES themselves cannot tell stories!

One things is for sure, Chris' RM is NOT the owner of a lonely heart!

If that RM could tall a few Tales, we'd likely find that it's been on a few Ventures and has been Close to the Edge on more than one occasion!
