    Post subject: New CD with Appin
    We agree that Jimmy’s guitar talent at its height was a force to be reckoned with, of which only a tiny portion can be evidenced in the only two known original songs written by him that are on the JET 2000 CD.

    We feel Appin is one of those long over-looked local talents that is now only beginning to blossom and really comes into his own on the new JET CD that is scheduled for release next month.

    P.S. I’m sorry you had to curtail the riding, but am glad that you are still able to visit when possible. Again, thank you for your support.

    For anyone reading this.Jimmy was the awesome Lead on Okinawa,in concerns to Classic Rock and Roll,for sure.And he,s missed by all who knew him as that I,m sure.But as well Check out Appins style.He,s not Loud b ut he speaks volumes with his playing style.BTW out of curiosity.When Appin is not playing what is his other work (Sun-Thurs).Wonder if he likes Japanese motorcycles?.HAHA

    Monday through Friday Appin works a regular 9 – 5 type job just like most people. When it comes to riding bikes, as far as I know, he is the only one of the current members who hasn’t at one point or another been a bike rider.

    Hey Brad,

    Sorry Taki and I haven’t had the chance to stop by the shop. Taki’s been busy recording the new CD. I did get the chance to visit your site though. Not bad!!! Hopefully we will get an opportunity to visit you at the shop soon. That way I’ll get the chance to see you at work, instead of the other way around, for a change!!! Ha Ha

    That is one thing that Taki and I really have in common, a major love of music! And we do feel very fortunate that we have the opportunity to share that love of music with other people. Especially when it’s with other people who love music as much as we do, like you Brad! Thank you and Keep on Rockin’!!!

    Yep, Kochan really gets into his drumming. He’s known as the power hitter by band members. My nickname for him is “Kochan Lee Lewis”!!!LOL
