Each birthday of Jerry's I remember my interactions and conversations with him. He was generous with his sincerity and conversational outreach in my memories. He did not put him self on a pedestal despite his fame. I remember the topics of conversation at the old 60 Brady Alembic location with that was my first interaction with him, where he told me about concepts of geometric relativity of a guitar finger board to musical intervals, as well as his study of guitarist Howard Roberts. I still use what he taught me in that conversation to this day. Another conversation was at a show in Stockton that I was working at for BGP /Bill Graham Presents, where he remembered me by my first name. I was really amazed !
