Hey Rich,

Great find! I love that stuff! I believe the Yellowjackets were orginally Ford's band-- I could be wrong. Haslip goes way back to Tommy Bolin. In the following few YJ albums, Ford shows up for a cut or two.

That 335 sounds great. Remember the big three 335 cats were Ritenour, Carlton & Ford. Wonder if there's any youtube of Carlton with The Crusaders?
