 Now we are going from Powell St. John to a member of the original 13th Floor Elevators. Their main bass player was Ronnie Leatherman. He has been kind enough to answer some questions about himself, the Elevators, and things in general during the psychedelic era. Ronnie and his wife Amy live in Kerrville and have been revisiting Austin regularly over the last three years revolving around the resurgence of the Elevators and their music. Ronnie still plays regularly around Kerrville with "Jay Boy Adams & the Roadhouse Scholars", and "The Welfare Fathers", and can still rip through the Elevators material when he is called upon. Ya'll enjoy.... THANKS FOR YOUR MEMORIES RONNIE! |
