This poster was hanging in the window of the Gypsy Tea Room the night we saw them live. "Stick" gave us a keepsake! Thank You!!

Sure hope all the old lps will find their way to cd sometime in the near future cause I just can't get enough of The Amazing Rhythm Aces...

It is hard to believe but this is the news...James Hooker has quit, sometime in 1999. One of the original ACES that helped make all that wonderful music. It just goes to show you, nothing remains the same, everything changes. That sounds like a song. Wonder who wrote it? I can't remember.
 
This is hard to ponder but Stick has quit the band!!  New faces for the ACES!

get this gear!

A friend of mine, another Don, told me in an email that he helped Russell load up equipment after the Wichita show and got to talk to him for a few minutes. Russell said their new CD is more blues, like Out Of The Blue type material; hope it gets releasd soon!. Me Too!
 
It is released and is called NOTHING BUT THE BLUES and is available at www.theacesforreal.com!!

Gossip

No guarantee of the accuracy of what you read in this column!
From what I heard thru the grapevine, the Concert Classics release on the Aces is from an appearance on the King Biscuit Flour Hour Radio Show...20 years ago. The Aces have nothing to do with the release. Apparently a "bill of goods" has been sold to a few innocent people... so we might see some live cds and other releases... but they would not be legit... cause Sony owns all the ARA masters from the older LPs.
