Hey Kenny
I recently went up to AV and Glen's son had a bunch of unreleased songs on two track masters! I bought them and below is what I've found!
Carla Weston, Rock A Billy singer George Weston's daughter got a bunch of her dads songs also and I'm helping her make a CD.
She's also promoting an AV 60's Band Reunion at the ballroom in the Palmdale Hilton Garden Inn July 19th. It would be great if you could come and sing a song or two with us!
Best Always,
Merrell
