Replaced me as manager of a local used record
store when I quit, guested on my radio show, and
the only guy taking advantage of the awesome 45 deals
at my vinyl yard sales.
Most frequently seen poring over the dime sleeveless
45's at IYE on Boston, Eli is a great guy, with impeccable
taste as well as unquestionable talent...and loads of it.
He's got a cute girlfriend, too
we're gonna need proof
In the winter of 1993-94, he was briefly attending the University of Chicago and we used to hang out, hitting used record shops, jamming on old R&B tunes in university practice rooms, going to see the Howard Tate/Betty LaVette show at the Schubert Theatre (and getting to meet them backstage!), getting full up on Harold's Fried Chicken. Played an informal show with him once at a coffeehouse/restaurant. Even tried to sneak him into a blues club but the doorman wasn't having it (he was still underage - he wouldn't be 21 for another few months). Cool people - I'm really happy to see his music career (and female situation!) working out for him...
That's shit is spot on!
Thanks for the tip.
