The RFD

Dan and I (Fred) worked for Bell Telephone Laboratories in the late 1960’s. Dan was playing guitar in the stage band which entertained some 2,000 engineers each month in an auditorium which was very large and had superb acoustics. I joined the band several months later to play bass and banjo. At the same time, I was playing banjo in a Dixieland band called the Dixie Doodles. Dan and I started meeting during lunch times to “jam” on current folk rock songs, both of us playing guitar.
