Well at least Ed did ! below is a link to the letter I recieved from Ed after the band called it quits for awhile. I had been wondering how he was doing after he decided to go south since I had no way to get in touch with him. I thought I had lost this long ago and was very surprized to find it sunday while looking through some old papers.
This was before He joined Lynyrd Skynyrd but had much to do with how it came about here is what Ed had to say,
Some guys I'd met in North Carolina...not Skynyrd. The band did some rehearsing but never really materialized. Had lunch with Steve Bassett the other day : http://stevebassettmusic.com/ However, if I HADN'T gone to N.C. and played with these guys, the Skynyrd thing would've never happened for me.
The drummer, Howard Martin, happened to be playing in a Detroit band that was gigging in Atlanta. At a bar they sat with Ronnie Van Zant and my name came up. Howard said he knew me and Ronnie said he needed to get in touch with me but didn't know how. That was a time in my life when I didn't want to be found...could be that only Howard knew where I was. Weird!
Here are links to the letter , I posted the links instead of the picture since it would format better.
