My lasting memory of Spencer Scott

Postby bob adams » Fri Oct 19, 2018 1:11 am

Seven years ago (seems like yesterday) Spence asked me to service his Rosewood P/P... Signed by Buddy the Master himself I reckon it was the tone machine of all PSGs (from 2.00 mins on in 'Papa John' Country it rings like a bell) .. to remember Spence I simply have to go to this video! (and I have done several times in the the last few days) .... this is not about me, simply the tone of the guitar and the memory of a friend I will long remember!! So sorry you are now not with us in the flesh Mr Scott but in the world of this PSG of ours you will remain forever! Bob

That's a very nice sentiment, Bob, and a lovely version of that particular tune. He must've been a happy chap, with that beautiful sounding guitar.
I wonder if anyone has any clips of Spencer playing? I didn't know him but enjoyed reading the "banter" he had going with Malcolm and Ken.

Wow! What great, tasty playing :guitar: and in such contrasting styles. Great chops indeed :guitar:

I recognise the backs of his groupies heads, too; The Taxi Driver, Biggles, Bangkok Reg and the religious instructor known as Buddha :lol:

Thanks for that Bob, much appreciated :D
