Rob Ickes in Guitar Player

Guitar Player Magazine February 2007We posted earlier this week that Larry Keel was profiled in the current (February ‘07) issue of Guitar Player Magazine.

It turns out that dobro master Rob Ickes also gets a mention in this issue, listed among the 100 Forgotten Greats and Unsung Heroes in a feature article.

At least in our bluegrass and acoustic music world, it’s hard to see Rob falling into either of those categories, but it’s nice to see him being recognized by such an influential and widely-read publication.
