Bill Wesson
I bought my first guitar, a Harmony Stratotone, in 1967. I played that guitar until the frets were flat to the fingerboard. A Fender Stratocaster, a (basement) band, and singing came in 1969. Through the '70s I played in country, blues, reggae, and roots bands. In the '80s I played as a solo act with my Martin D35 and began to write my own songs. With the advent of our Rocky Mountain packing and guiding business in the early 90's, I began playing cowboy music which revived my love for pickin' and crowin'!
