I'd have given my eyeteeth to have played with B. B. King ... not
sure about Tommy James (what was their one hit, Crimson and Clover
or something?).

   Now, with his hands

It sounds as though it was a major part of his life, and
he should keep it up as long as possible.

I've heard tell of students getting a keyboard with headphones
and doing fine. A cheap, effective, and quiet solution!

           -thick on the diagonal
      2 tb Chopped flat leaf parsley
           -for garnish

MMMMM----------------------CAESAR DRESSING---------------------------
      2 tb White wine vinegar
    1/2 ts Grated lemon zest
      1 tb Fresh lemon juice
    1/2 ts Finely minced garlic
    1/2 ts Dijon mustard
      1 ea Hard-cooked egg; chopped
      1 tb Fine grated Parmesan cheese
           Coarse ground black pepper
           -to taste
    1/4 c  Olive oil

  Bread slices are great toasted on the grill and even better when
  lightly brushed with olive oil. They just need a minute or two per
  side.

  1. Combine lemon zest, lemon juice, vinegar, garlic, olive oil, salt
  and pepper and toss over the steak in a bowl. Refrigerate, covered,
  overnight.

  2. Gently tear the lettuce into medium-sized pieces and place in a
  serving bowl. Set aside.

  3. Remove steak from refrigerator thirty minutes before grilling.
  Shake off excess marinade. Grill the steak over high heat, three
  inches from the heat source, for five minutes per side for
  medium-rare meat. Let the steak rest for ten minutes, then slice
  thinly on the diagonal. Grill the French bread slices lightly on both
  sides.

  4. Toss the lettuce with the Caesar Dressing, adjusting seasonings if
  necessary, and divide evenly among four dinner plates. Place four
  slices of steak gently atop each salad, taking care not to bury it.
  Place a slice of grilled bread on each plate. Serve salt and pepper
  alongside. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately. Makes four
  servings.

  CAESAR DRESSING: Place all ingredients except the olive oil in a bowl
  and mix together well. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in the oil
  and continue whisking until the mixture has thickened slightly. Makes
  twelve tablespoons.
