We listened to a track from a CD, which had a dedicated track on it for Tony, This was a recording made by John Frankland, my old rhythm guitarist, from The Dominoes. Tony sends his thanks for your support, and kind messages. All in all, a pleasant visit to an old Friend. Further reports will follow. Don't give up on Tony."
