Photos of Semie Moseley

Postby dorkrockrecords » Tue Jan 26, 2010 12:05 am

Every now and then my friend the internet surprises me with something great. This is one such time - pics of Semie circa '74-75 preachin', sandin' at Roberto-Venn, and tourin' with the Semie Moseley Band (plus a little '60s Maphis pickin' for good measure). Enjoy!

I have heard that Semie was 6 feet 5, or 6 feet 6 inches....tall dude....with hands as big as hams, which makes you wonder why he loved those skinny little necks so much!! But he could play those necks, and he loved them.

I don't see why I couldn't adjust to a Mosrite neck now that I know Semie was a pretty big guy. I just have to buy a 60s Mosrite now (Although that could still be a while off)
