Anon E. Mouse	10/11/2009 11:51:15 PM GODDAMIT! I let the cat out of the bag, again!

Hugh Hamilton	8/20/2009 7:25:13 PM Yup, most of my basslines are the Ric direct, although the latest ones are the Ric through Mr. Fearn's VT-15 channel strip, which is exquisite to my ear. My cover of Mr. Ison's "I Know A Good Thing" was a "first example" of that combo. I love the action, the slim neck, everything about that bass. Rock on! :)
Hugh Hamilton	8/20/2009 12:04:36 AM Landed on your page by way of Tom O'Brien - saw that Gibson you're holding in yer profile pic and HAD to try to catch a glimpse so looked at yer pics, then saw Sean w/Rick and HAD to say - that's just like MY FAVORITE BASS (I only have two) THAT I'VE HAD AND USED ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY SINCE 1980! Ahhhhh, I feel better now... :) H
Bryon Tosoff	5/30/2009 8:11:29 PM Bob That tune How lonely is just a superb piece of work, and should be on terresterial and satellite radio....Stellar arrangement and great production. nice tasty touches throughout and superb vox...one of the best tunes around that I have heard and I listen to a lot of music ,well done man...you have really made this tune shine. bryon voodoohead.ca
Hop On Pop	5/21/2009 12:54:58 PM Thanks for the shout-out, Bob. It always means a lot more, when coming from someone I respect and admire.
The GeeBees	5/6/2009 3:28:01 PM Bob Elliott has been awarded A prestigious GOLDEN BUNNY for consistently producing music of high quality and varied content. Also he receives an honourable mention for guitar mastery
J. Patrick Sharpe	1/25/2009 6:25:18 PM Hey Bob, I saw your note on my Super Songwriters station. I checked out your tunes and I am glad I did. I was blown away. You are a very talented musician and songwriter. "Melt Away" is my favorite. That's a big time song, man. Also really liked "Let Me Owe You Something." You've got real talent. If I had money I'd start a record label or management company and sign all you guys that should be signed and touring so people can hear you Hugh Hamilton, Phlegm/Conversation Suicide, Bob Elliot...the list could go on. Ah hell, maybe I'll hit the lottery someday. Stop by my page sometime and check out some of my tunes if you get a chance. Best wishes to you and keep up the great work! -JP
SILVERWOODSTUDIO	1/25/2009 1:44:55 PM I've just discovered your music-again!! first contact is really brilliant!
