Hi all:

Just thought I'd share this with you. My surf band the Madeira is featured in the current (March) issue of the Guitar Player magazine, posing with matching fiesta red Fenders AND singing the praises of the Shadows! I thought some of you might enjoy seeing this.

Thanks!

Thank you so very much, Kurt, Robby and David! It's a huge thrill to be in the GP magazine. The first interview I ever read with Hank was in their issue from '77, and learned a lot from it! In addition, I really like how the editor wrote about me, as being "lucky enough to have a father who played in Shadows cover bands in the '60s"! That was very nice - and I couldn't agree more! :) I'm really happy to have had a chance to give some credit to the Shadows when the spotlight turned on us, however briefly.

Thanks again!
