Reggie Reuffer -- This one might require a little
explanation. When we used to play with Jake Hooker at Big Balls
of Cowtown in Fort Worth Reggie would sing Blue Spanish
Eyes. The bandstand was built on the bed of an old pickup
and on the cab there was a sombrero, which I would always hand to Reggie
to wear for this tune. There was also this big hubcap on the cab
and one night I decided to hand Reggie the hubcap instead of the sombrero.
What choice did he have?
