'I have enjoyed Redd's music most of my life. Several years ago I helped a Kentucky collector sell a 1916 Gibson guitar, that had once been owned and played by Redd! He gave me the custom steel that was still inside the case, and I still treasure it. Another one of my friends was given his old pitch pipe. Redd deserves to be honored.'
