4/27/95
And so at last the great ea had come to an end, swept away by the streams of time. Final visit to Les apt as off to Boston he went, meeting no doubt his destiny, his new career, and way too much clam chowder. There would be the inevitable reunion albums and tours, the classic rock radio royalties et al, but all colored by the enveloping hue of nosalgia for what was and what could be no more. For the Sender Age had ended, and a new generation was rising. Thus sticking our fingers down our throats in the traditional senderish parting, we loaf off into the sunset bellowing . borrnnn to be wiilllld

POSTSCRIPT

Les returned to Adairville Kentucky of all places, where several brief 'Sender' sessions were held in the attic of the old mansion like house he briefly lived in whilest commuting to Vanderbilt. It was here that the final Sender original 'White Knight' was finished, little else is remembered from these attic sessions, other than it was a long drive up there from the farm.
