WOW, Bob,
Thanks for the walk down memory… Frank was a genius on many levels. I believe he could play anything he put his mind to. His sense of humor and timing being uncanny at times. I saw him I think when Michael Franks was playing near by and he did a great vibe/jazz thing totally impromptu based on Michael’s music, it was truly magic. (He did the same with Cash and many others.) Thanks for taking me back.
As for the thread… everything has harmonics, why wouldn’t the spokes on a wheel?
I am going to take my sons old guitar tuner and see how close the spokes are on Campy wheels! What a great idea. Blessings.
