It is with a great fondness that I remember our dear friend Roberto Pistolisi from Italy, who nine years ago yesterday passed away having succumbed to an incurable illness.
I argued with Roberto over his Gretsch theory and we became good friends, culminating in visits to each other's homes and finally through my connection with Warren Bennett getting him a meeting with Hank. Fond memories indeed and all I can say is that Roberto, you are sorely missed.
