Happy Birthday Shawn and Guys we have a Treasure in our Group Now
I want yall to welcome @Bill Oliver Bill knew Shawn when he was a kid and Bill was a Rhodes Scholar and he and his frat brothers knew Shawn was a young genius. Bill is the one that introduced Shawn to Holdsworths Music and in fact is the one that took Shawn to see him play and Bill said after that very night Shawn chaged everything about his playing within a few weeks. Bill was Shawns closest friend over the years and we have been friends for about 30 years and it is an honor to have him be a part of this community and he knows a lot about Shawn so the Q&A section, feel free to tag him! Welcome Brother! We have another huge surprise coming into the group as well hopefully later today!

I neglected to mention that All That I Want that Robin Trower recorded was written by Tom Ward, Sam Bryant, and Suzanne Jerome Taylor. Sam was a founding member of The Willys. Tom and Suz were from a band called The Breaks. Tom took Sam’s place in The Willys and I believe he co-authored The Hurt The Joy from Shawn’s Tri Tone Fascination CD.

@Jimmy Hudson Suz is Paul’s step-mother. She was married to Pat Taylor, Paul’s Father, a fine player in his own right. Paul played several gigs with Shawn with Luther & Cody Dickinson from The North Mississippi All Stars and with Shawn and Jeff Sipe. A lot of this is documented on videos on YouTube.

I met Shawn when he was 11 or 12. He was playing with his band Tyfoyd at Audubon Park in Memphis, TN. We remained close friends till the end.
