Happy Birthday Sulky Lad

Post by verbal gymnastics »

The legendary board member who the words “an audience recording exists” was invented for is 65 today.

Thanks to you, your lapels and cassette/minidisc recorders for the fantastic work you have done over the years in opening up Elvis’ shows to the masses.

Your generosity at the meet ups and fellow fans around the world is very much appreciated.

Enjoy your day and probably the only time for a while where I will acknowledge your kindness, our friendship and my admiration for you.

Happy Birthday, Sulky!!
Since you put me down, it seems i've been very gloomy. You may laugh but pretty girls look right through me.

My only peace and quiet occurs in the wee hours so I missed this on the actual day ( as I work on part of my 40- year anniversary recordings from 1983) and once again, I'm touched by and grateful for the kind words and wonderful friendship of VG - and all those I've been fortunate to meet and share my love of Elvis and his live work. Long may we all be able to share the joy of those wonderful performances !

All hail to the Archivist, Elvis' own unpaid Glynn Johnns.

In England at aged 65 you used to be able to draw your 'old age pension' but times have changed.

This may no longer be the last year of your youth but it's a great excuse to hear EC croon on about his :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jvd_mejpWQc

Best wishes

Happy Birthday, David. Still have fond memories of meeting you at Meltdown 95, and the very kind letter you wrote me the following year after my personal tragedy has never left me.

Once again, so touched by the generous comments and thoughts from all my dear friends in Elvis. I'm lucky to have been able to meet so many of you and to be able to share my love of the man and his live work in particular - and I WILL be in NY one day I promise BA !
