    GREENY & THE LYNX

    loved the article about Clapton’s missing Les Paul from the ‘Beano’-album era. I was amazed to see the photos from The Lynx youth centre – I spent my teenage years growing up in Borehamwood and saw my first live show there in 1967, Amen Corner! I didn’t even know about The Bluesbreakers in February 1966 – my favourite bands at the time were The Stones, The Pretty Things and The Yardbirds – Jeff Beck was my guitar idol and I was introduced to the ‘Beano’ album by a school friend that autumn. I still don’t think I’ve ever recovered. I did get to. Greeny was using his 335 that night and he was on fire! Great days. I’ve been playing guitar since 1968 and love semi-pro gigging... but when are we all going to be able to do it again?
