Why don't you tell them what you know of this cat and his connection with the Fab Four, then I'll fill in the empty spaces. Busy day in the shop, so I'll be in and out. Way to go! Congrats! Please send me your shipping info to charmedlifepicks @ gmail.com. We're behind on the reds, as usual, but hope to caught up in about a week. Woohoo! Scott Memmer

Way to go, StillStephen! Btw, iirc, did you win something in a similar contest a while ago? Seeing your moniker as the winner conjured that in my mind.

Folks, I hope you had fun. Sorry this one was such a tough one. This connection between Lord Buckley and the Beatles was something that attached to my brain like a lint ball many years ago. He was revered (still is) but many top comedians, including Richard Pryor, Robin Williams, Mort Saul, etc.
The titles of "Hey Jude" and "Crackerbox Palace" are pulled directly from Buckley's life or routines. Paul and George were huge fans, but all four of them dug him. In and out today, will chime in with more later. scott

Lord Buckley did the absolute best "A Christmas Carol" ever. Google (or Youtube) it!
 A local (Philly) DJ used to play this every Christmas season- a highlight!Great contest Scott!

I think you already covered what I know about Lord Buckley and George in particular - Crackerbox Palace. Once it was narrowed down to deceased American male performer who was an entertainer (but not muscian or writer specifically), and your response to Warhol and Max guesses, I started thinking about eccentric individuals and remembered the story of George meeting his agent and seeing his house in LA. Looking forward to trying the red - I'll add it to my recently acquired black model and the on going comparison to my other favorite picks - Wegen, Herco Gold and BC TD-35. Yes, I still need to put my thoughts in a review and post it here soon!!

Just received my pick and it's a real beauty!! Looking forward to comparing it with the black version (certainly feels stiffer). Thanks again Scott for the fun contest and the great customer service!!
