"DON COLE"
THOUGH "STAN COLE" WAS ONE OF THE PEOPLE I HAD LEARNED TO PLAY GUITAR FROM AND I KNEW THAT HE HAD AN OLDER BROTHER WHO WAS SOMEWHAT FAMOUS AND HAD MADE A FEW HITS ON THE RADIO, I DID NOT HAVE THE INFORMATION THAT SHOWED ME, THAT "STAN COLE" HAD LEARNED MUCH OF HIS GUITAR PLAYING FROM "DON COLE". IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SAY HOW MUCH, SINCE "STAN COLE" HAD THE SAME PHOTOGENIC MEMORY FOR MUSIC THAT "DON COLE" HAD. I ALSO NEVER MET "DON COLE" FOR THE THREE AND A HALF YEARS THAT I HAD HUNG AROUND WITH "STAN"; THOUGH "STAN COLE" UNDOUBTEDLY HAD EMERGED AS THE BEST GUITARIST OF THE TWO, AND "DON COLE" HAD TOLD HIS MOTHER AFTER "STAN" HAD PASSED ON, THAT HIS BIGGEST REGRET WAS THAT HE HAD NEVER GOT TO TELL "STAN" THAT HE WAS THE BEST GUITARIST HE HAD EVER SEEN. HE REALLY MEANT IT TOO AND IT IS QUITE A COMPLIMENT WHEN CONSIDERING THE FAMOUS MUSICIANS WHO "DON COLE" HAD MET AND ALSO INFLUENCED. STILL; "DON COLE" WAS NEVERTHELESS EXTREMELY GOOD HIMSELF. HIS STORY AND INFLUENCE IS POWERFUL AND UTTERLY AMAZING. THE MAN IN THE FOLLOWING PICTURE IN THE WHITE SUIT IS "PAT MCMAHON" OF THE "WALLACE AND LADMO" SHOW. "DON COLE" IS THE MAN STANDING BESIDE HIM. THIS FOLLOWING PICTURE AS YOU SEE HAS THE WORDS ADDED, "THE 'DON COLE' STORY" BECAUSE IT IS NOW ALSO THE COVER FOR A CD BY THIS NAME. "JOHN P. DIXON" AND "DAN NOWICKI" AS WELL AS "BEN DOVER INC." HAVE DONE A REMARKABLE JOB IN BRINGING THIS STORY FORWARD. IF THIS CD IS NOT AVAILABLE AT THE FOLLOWING LINK WHICH IS THE PICTURE ITSELF AT THE MOMENT, DUE TO AVAILABILITY, YOU MAY FIND IT AT OTHER SITES. SIMPLY TYPE IN, THE DON COLE STORY IN GOOGLE.
