Rene Olstead. I don't know anything about her music, but she's gorgeous. UPDATE--Oops. I just found out she was 15 when this photo was taken, and that she just turned 16 last week.

John Hammond Earlier This Year:

"I’m going to Holland and France for some solo shows and some shows with Duke Robillard. After that I’ll be back in the States, opening up some shows for The Allman Brothers. I knew Duane before he formed the band; he was a fantastic player, the best for that single note electric standard tuning style. He’d sit me down and be like "show me that again" (laughs). Then he formed the band and they actually opened some shows for me in their early days."

He's back from Europe; don't know about tour dates with Allmans, though.

Duane was a sideman in Muscle Shoals, and played on two tracks of Hammond's 1969 album "Southern Fried." Seeing him open for the ABB would be fantastic.

Texas must have a delta somewhere.
