When singer/songwriter Bob Dee and good friend Ward Parker (a.k.a.
Uncle Winston) began creating a body of songs incorporating their
favorite musical styles, the fledgeling band didn't yet have a name.
When Bob called up his oldest friend - and talented guitarist - Paul
Lupo to collaborate, Paul replied, “I'm in. But who wants to listen
to a couple of old suitcases like us?”
And so Methuselah's Valise (a.k.a. Old Bastards With More Baggage
Than the Train They Rode In On.) was born.
Bassist Olmon Hairston and engineer Rich “Swordfish” Lamb soon came
on board, and Paul's question was answered: everyone who wants to
hear classic adult contemporary rock and roll.
