    If you are a fan of Joey's guitar playing, I recommend finding Gary Walker and the Rain. Joey is just fantastic, all over the album.
    I don't think I'd ever go see him after reading the book, but I can tell you if he played the Walker material, I'd would go in a minute.

    Really enjoyed the reissue out of Japan for Album No. 1 on Remastered CD!

    Gary Leeds reunited with John & Joey separately to catch up on more recent times for everyone, but not to pursue any project musically.

    Joey can really play some amazing guitar today!

    Listening to album prior to No Dice "MCM" and one of those great Pete Ham songs Badfinger played over first US Tour with Joey in band.

    The BBC version of this song, available on the Without You book CD, really rocks as well. The fidelity of the recording is pretty bad but I'm glad it's preserved in some form.

    The original which inspired Harry Nilsson to make the huge "Hit" of Pete & Tom's writing.

    Tom & Joey sat in with John Lennon, playing acoustic guitars on Jealous Guy (JL Anthology Version)



    I think the sound is clearer here, much more Production on album version (Strings, whistling etc...)
