Hello again, and welcome back to 'First Correst Answer'.
As the last year rolled by, I have marvelled at how fortunate I have been.
As so many friends have had to endure the hardest parts of ife, I have been very fortunate this year.
I have been able to be employed(where some have not), and I have been able to enjoy so much music.

I would like to offer, again a contribution to your favorite Charity. You can mail me with your charity of choice, or post away.

I will re-double the contributions this year, and surprisingly, 4 out of 5 charities from last year did not revisit me this year, so we must need some new ones.

I will try to make the Q's easy enough, if you can see through my small Nuck head.

Best of luck, my best wishes to all, and release the hounds!

In 1972, Canadian Neil Young was recording his 3rd album, already named Harvest.
On the day to record 'Old man" his session guy came down with the willies. Neil was short one player.
Fortunately, there was a player just down the hall who had a handy banjo, and the song changed forever, in one cut.

Name the banjo player.

GC, the donation has been made via phone.


...And he will drown a lot of worms.




OK, since I am already into the assortment of collectable bourbons(thanks to my daughter), Who's recording truck was parked just outside the venue that Deep Purple sang about.
Bonus points for naming the guy with the flare gun.

Nuck, side note. Camp Mak' a Dream can only accept mailed donations. The camp is not high tech yet and does not do phone or electronicdonations. I usually send either personal check or money order.

Correct.

If you have a second charity, JC, please offer it or pass along the donation to another contestant.

JC is an honorable gent and I appreciate his kindness.

Well Nuck I have always found the Make A Wish Foundation to be deserving of some of my extra coin. I hope the new year will find you as good as the past year has been to you and my many thanks to you.

Clarence, God (higher power or other) works in mysterious ways!

That is the other charity we give to here in Atlanta!!

I wanted to say that but I also didn't want to steal the show. Good stuff.
