Bill & Sue-On Hillman Reflections
Companion
Page to PART Va: Chad Allan | Guess Who | BTO
Many of the items on display in the exhibits
bring back personal memories of the Manitoba
Music scene
through the last 50 years.

Honourary Degrees from Brandon U. |
Interestingly many Web pages across the Internet
have used info and photos from my Chad Allan tribute.
In fact, at least three major sites have mistakenly
used and identified
a photo of myself holding my first Silvertone/Sears
guitar as that of Chad Allan : )
Later I spent much time in Tarzana, California at the home of Danton Burroughs - grandson of the author, Edgar Rice Burroughs. Dan had amassed a huge collection of rare jukeboxes and they ringed the main room in his huge "Pscho-style" home. Each was stocked with a selection of old blues, doo-wop and rock 'n' roll. He would amaze visitors by throwing a master switch which lit up every one of the machines in his house. Sadly he died at way too young an age in 2008. I was honoured to give a eulogy at his memorial service on Ventura Boulevard. |
